The night light for nerds afraid of the dark: The Lego Light

Some of us are afraid of heights. Others are afraid of spiders *raises hand*. And then there are folks afraid of the dark. I wonder how scary the darkness would be with the aide of a LEGO Light molded to look exactly like the classic 2 x 2 cube many of us have grown up piecing together countless times? Ya, now it’ll be fun to turn out the lights…

Floppy Disk tiles — Because geeks apparently like flooring too…

While there are plenty of “eye level” home decor items that cater to the geek lifestyle, the very thing under our feet — the floor. Duh! — often gets ignored time and time again. I’ve often looked at my floor and thought how I could make it reflect my personality better. Ok, not really. But I’m sure some people have. And why not? Having some type of geeky floor layout/design is the extra icing on the cake. If a searchin’ you do go for said icing, perhaps some floppy disk tiles would suffice? Once on the bleeding edge of computers, floppies have become nothing more than a nuisance, piece of trash, joke, or some other undesirable social product. Nevertheless, if I walked into a house that had a floor of pieced together floppy disk tiles, I’d be geeked.

Unfortunately, these are only concepts at the moment. I know, you’re bummed. But hey, now that the idea is in your head, maybe you (or you over there) can get a plan in motion to bring us some floppy disk tiles. Would you use them?

Down to the minute stocking stuffer: The Robot Alarm

Some people pride themselves in their ornate and sophisticated plans and schedules they lay their lives out in. Such ways to approach the daily grind aren’t necessarily bad, they just don’t allow for any flexibility in my opinion. Others however find a kind of rush by “flying by the seat of their pants” into any and all situations. Which one are you? It really doesn’t matter. The Robot Alarm knows no right or wrong. Whatever type of person you are, organized or completely chaotic is nothing to this little alarm. The only thing it longs for is a loving (or not) touch from you each morning letting it know you’re still alive. $13.69 for waking up a little nerdier and a little happier. What say ye?

WiFi Baseball Hat brings the geekiness front and center (and above)

A mobile blogger/internet junkie is always on the go go go with their face buried deep in silicon and glass. Often times, the mobile network just doesn’t cut it when absolute speed is needed. Fortunately we have WiFi to fall back on. If you’re really looking to display your nerdiness to the world, you never use your devices built in WiFi detector. No. Such common acts are so “civilian”. Instead, be a true geek and fire up your WiFi Detecting Baseball hat. Said hat works exactly the same as the WiFi detecting shirt with a slightly different spin. If wearing a WiFi detector on your chest isn’t you, or you need more than one detection method for a fail safe backup, the WiFi hat is just your thing. All you need is a pair of CR2032 batteries and a head to put it on.

I personally find the WiFi shirt more functional as you can just look down and see the network strength whereas with the hat you have to constantly put it on and take it off. To each his own. Are you getting one? Roughly $22 and it’s yours!
