WTF?

To lighten your Friday, as you’re counting down the hours (or minutes…or seconds….) to the official beginning of the weekend, we offer this fabulously funny, geeky music video by Julian Smith.

It's Cool to be a Witch 2.0 by Lord Alexian

Halloween is possibly the most geektastic of all the traditional holidays, so we’re not going to let it pass, unacknowledged. No, we’re sending a musical Halloween treat out to our fellow geeks, instead. This music video was made by Lord Alexian; it’s an updated dance remix version of his wildly popular original song, “It’s Cool [...]

BlizzCon Denied - anyone have a Kleenex? I hate to see a paladin cry...

Due to circumstances beyond our control, GeekSpeakBlog – in other words, ME – will not be attending BlizzCon after all. In the manner of all Mr. Murphy’s Laws, if something can go wrong, it probably will, and often literally in the 11th hour. So I offer sincere apologies to our readers and fans, as I [...]

Let me preface this with….today, I’m presenting a slightly different kind of geekdom than what you’re normally finding here…..and….. My Dad is the grandma on the left….. Yes, I am using all the proper nouns, too…. My Dad is a retired professional sports writer and he still blogs for ESPN Page 2 and he debates [...]

Geek Gyrl playing Nerd Herder on Meez.com

I had a bit of fun playing around on the Meez website, today. Meez are not “new” online dress up dolls, by any stretch; however, they’ve updated a lot of the accessories, backgrounds, etc., including a nice array of geeky accoutrement. Some examples, you ask? Why certainly! How about Chuck and Matrix backgrounds; Doctor Who [...]
