If you are a geek then your first choice for a vacation spot may not be the beach, it's probably to places like the Space Center in Houston, Fan Expo in Canada or the Tokyo Game Show.  But if your vacation plans are to a sunny beach locale then I'm sure your vacation checklist contains items like your smart phone, laptop, and plenty of sunblock.  One more item you need to include on that list are these Metal Detecting Sandals from Hammacher Schlemmer, while you are taking a walk on the beach you can locate hidden treasure. 

Do you need a way to tell your geeky guy that you love him this Valentine's Day?  Then these Captured By Your Love Couple T-Shirts from BoldLoft will let him know that you are totally stuck on him.  Maybe you and your superhero can reenact the Spiderman Kiss!  You could also tell your geek guy you love him in binary code... (I) 01001001 (L) 01101100 (O) 01101111 (V) 01110110 (E) 01100101(Y) 01111001 (O) 01101111 (U) 01110101.

Are you looking for a gift for that geek that is so into physics?  Then this Einstein Relativity Watch from Future Memories will make a great gift.  This watch is also perfect for those Sci-Fi geeks, because you know that many sci-fi television shows and movies revolve around the space-time continuum.  Remember Back to the Future most of us learned so much about Physics and the time-space continuum, such as you need a flux capacitor and the ability to get to 88 MPH, and if you disturb the time-space continuum you will disappear. 

It 's time to start planning the menu for your Thanksgiving Day meal, what dishes do you plan on serving?  How about some Tusken Raider Taters or for dessert maybe some Wookie Cookies.  If you are a Star Wars geek and you will be hosting the Thanksgiving Day eat-a-thon then you have to get The Star Wars Cookbook from X-treme Geek.  You can show your guests just how strong your culinary powers are when you whip up some delicious dishes from this cookbook.  Are you wondering if you have a Star Wars fan or a Star Wars geek in your life, if they display any of the following then they are a hardcore Star Wars geek...

Represent your geeky girl style with this fun T-Qualizer Heart T-Shirt!  This shirt would make a great gift for all your friends that are music geeks.  For everyone that still believes that being a nerd or geek isn't cool, you're so wrong!  It's time to show the geeky or nerdy girls some love, because smart is the new sexy.  If your question is why would you want to date a geeky girl?  This is why......

I recently had the pleasure of spending some time with a group of young engineers, mathmaticians, programmers and this one guy who works with nuclear stuff.  All very intelligent people and pretty successful in the beginning of their careers.  When I saw this gift idea, I thought of those guys. 

I hate to stereo type but, they were the ultimate picture of geeky or nerdy (I'm told it all depends on who you are talking to as to which they think they are).  The conversations were interesting in that their sense of humor and what they found interesting was very different.  Since I am not "like them", I didn't get most of the jokes, analogies or references, but seeing the passion in their discussions I was highly entertained.  I think I even learned a few things, don't know where or how I will use this new knowledge but interesting all the same.

So here's to you guys for a very entertaining weekend!  Not that you need this book, just more subjects for you to analyze their worthiness.  Stuff You Don't Learn in Engineering School, from GiftsforEngineers.com.

If you love Wired magazine and their website as much as I do, then I know you have seen the Geekster Handbook.  But for those of you that are just geek-lovers with full-on crushes for all types of nerds, then you need to check out the handbook.  You can find out about different types of geeks, it may even give you a few pointers for topics to talk about to get the attention of your geek-crush.
