What a girl geek wants - a list by hanahula
Options for This Page
About this list:
I grew up in an era when a calculator was considered high tech, so I am simply floored by the current pace of technological change. Yet, I don't want to purchase something just because it's the latest (and supposedly greatest) new gadget. Here is what I have found to be fun, useful and/or relatively easy to use.
Qualifications:
Quite simply, I am a girl and a geek.
I Still Want My Flying Car Long Sleeve T-Shirt - Retropolis Transit Authority
First to recommend
Description
Still fascinated by the world depicted in "The Fifth Element", I simply love the promise of this modest tee shirt by Retropolis. Perhaps the flying car isn't something we will only get to experience at Epcot Center . . . (via printfection)

RadTech Products - StuffBak

Description
An inexpensive, low-tech way to protect all your mobile devices, the StuffBak labels can be applied to laptops, iPods, iPhones, Blackberries . . . anything that houses your valuable data. And you can even set an amount to be awarded to the honest soul who returns that phone you left sitting on the counter of your favorite cafe. Good karma and good insurance. (via RadTech)

Description
Helvetica is now more than 50 years old ! Perhaps that doesn't sound even vaguely familiar to you, but typography buff Gary Hustwit has filmed a documentary about the predominance of this typeface in modern life. I cannot wait to see it. But then I am a type geek. (via Helvetica Film)
