Breathlessly awaiting the return of LOST!

by GeekMom on January 30, 2008

LOST is coming back tomorrow night, and I can hardly wait! I hope ABC provides some kind of recap, because it’s been forever since the last episode.

My New Favorite USB Device

by GeekMom on January 23, 2008

I love looking at new USB gadgets. It’s amazing the things you can get that run off of USB power right on your desk. You can get a vacuum cleaner, a lava lamp, a Christmas tree, even a robotic USB Stewie from Family Guy. (I’ve put together some of my favorites on this page at [...]

Here’s a New Geek Shirt for my Blogging Buddies

by GeekMom on January 22, 2008

Here is the first in a series of designs I’m doing especially for bloggers. I’m inspired (and a little bit annoyed at times) by all the chiclets and buttons people have on their blogs.
