Geeks on Friday night

by on November 17, 2006

Four geeks. Two male. Two female. Everyone is on computers. We’re IM’ing each other. It’s quite sad. Oh, except Chris just posted about the sadness of this. Which got us all to talk. Heheh.

Hope you’re doing something better with your Friday evening.

  • Corinne: So what is your definition of a geek then?

    Someone who is ultra passionate about something, usually technology related. Extra points if it's someone who builds things, but that's not necessarily required.

  • So what is your definition of a geek then? Is it just people on computers? What about the words dork and nerd?

    What do you call someone who was busy creating another blog on Friday night? (Besides answering: "me")
  • Ha, even I was online Friday night too (doing Live QnA stuff). I have only written a couple of VB newbie articles for MSDN and a gadget for live.com...and I don't have enough gizmos yet to truly geek out...but, I wish I was there. My best to Chris/Ponzi/Robert/Maryam. :)

  • I have written a line of code. You forget that I was an editor at Visual Basic Programmer's Journal and learned more than a little bit about code there. But, I never wrote code professionally.

    Interesting that you are so unconfident in your own skills that you don't even post your own name.
  • foxhunter
    geek? you have not written a single line of code in your self-aggrandizing and ego-centric life and you consider yourself a geek? give us a break...
  • Sounds like a fine evening.

    Me? I went to the Bond flick. Excellent. (released by a division of Sony, and chock full of Sony product placement. Q, evidently, has been replaced by a marketing droid from Sony.)

    I happen to love geeks. They're kinda sexy :)
  • Nope. Had to work all night.
  • Buzz: we played some Zuma, then watched an HD-DVD. So there!
  • I will close my feed reader, I will close my feedreader... Oh well, wishful thinking. Why do I have a feeling a podcast will come out of this? Very interesting week so far in the industry, a lot to talk about.

  • Probably better than playing Zuma!
  • Friday nights are great for catching up on all the good blogs. The kids are in bed, spouse playing WoW and Pink Floyd is playing in the background. Good times!
  • Not really! hahaha... creating stupid swag stuff for my sites!
