Our tweens and teens heading back to school aren't satisfied with cute erasers and personalized pencils anymore. They want tech! Aside from all those tablets and phones and laptops they've got 400 good reasons they need, here are a few l…

I am beyond happy that smart is in fashion--for us and for our kids. (In fact, check our Cool Mom Picks back to school shopping guide for a whole category of tees that promote smarts instead of stupidity.) And while they don't make this …

I'm pretty familiar with the saying about wearing your heart on your sleeve, but with this new line of t-shirts, we might have a new one that's very 2012: Wearing your tweet on your chest. The tShirtOS programmable t-shirt will actually …

We were riveted when Curiosity landed on Mars, watching intently to see all the scientists, hugging and celebrating. And then...we saw our new geek girl crush, Bobak Ferdowsi, known around the internet as NASA's Mohawk Guy. Want to know …

We've all been there. Staring at an out-of-date PC tower, trying to figure out what to do with twenty pounds of useless technology that was top-of-the-line three years ago. But Italian designer Paolo Mirai has a great new way to use your…

If you've got a kid with a big love for gadgets, Star Wars, and having cooler things than other kids in the class, we think we've found the perfect thing. The R2-D2 watch is no mere digital wristwatch, it's got radio control powers too, …

I take my tunes quite seriously, so I always need to have the right gear to do justice to the music. For me, the right headphones have to feel good, provide the right sound balance, and look hot to boot. And now I've found a perfect pair…

I got a huge giggle out of this print which shows just what ol' Mario would look like through an X-ray, after eating all those mushrooms of dubious origin, unmarked pills, and bizarre plants. The Dr. Mario print comes courtesy of illustr…

If you're a lomography fan, or just looking for a super cool hostess gift for a friend who's generous with her beach house, this new camera is so neat. The St. Tropez edition of the La Sardina Camera makes me feel elegant just trilling t…

I'm picky when it comes to laptop cases, because I tote mine around pretty much daily. I kind of hate when I end up at an after-work cocktail party knowing I have to tote a big, padded ugly thing over my shoulder the whole time. (Upper c…

This month I received several ominous warnings from my ISP, popping up to interrupt my web pages as I was browsing - We are replacing your wireless router! Order now or your service will be interrupted! You have T minus 14 days...13 days…

It's been a long time since I've carried around my SLR, but one thing was certain when I did that I learned from my shutterbug friends: Never use it without a camera strap. With that in mind, just look at these gorgeous camera straps I f…

The Avengers may be out blowing up aliens and eating Shwarma, but the Justice League is right here, saving the world in a slightly more quiet fashion. If the dad in your life likes being a hero as much as he likes reading about them, we'…

Ahhh...I still remember the day I picked up my very first MacBook like it was yesterday. Pristine white shell, fancy schmancy inner workings. It was like reaching nerd-vana while floating on top of a wispy wireless cloud. Five minutes la…

While we don't need no stinkin' anniversary to celebrate our love of all things Star Wars, our inner geeks (especially those of us of a certain age) are feeling a little nostalgic today for May 25, 1977, when millions of children were in…

After seeing the Avengers movie yesterday, I fully believe that the Avengers are the toughest superheroes in the world (and Asgard!). So who else would you trust to keep your phone safe from dents, scratches, and villainy? [we've got mor…

I know I'm not the only one who has wasted way too much time playing my hand at the uber popular Plants vs. Zombies app, so I shouldn't be surprised that they are now super cool wall decals, available on sale now at Fab.com. I can't thin…

There are plenty of us passionate enough about our social media channel of choice, to consider displaying our allegiances on our baby clothes , our couch pillows and now perhaps...our shoes. A while back, we discovered these Adidas Twitt…

Now that you Android users can enjoy an Instagram obsession like me, the next thing you'll find yourself wanting to do is to display your photos on something other than your smart phone screen. So aside from all the cool ways you can pri…

How fondly I remember those giddy days (and nights!) of playing Super Mario Bros. in brilliant 8-bit color. It was a simpler time. A time when I loved nothing better than stomping turtles. And I still remember the panicky excitement of c…

My fellow geeks, we are a truly persnickety bunch, especially when it comes to social media. It takes a lot to earn our Likes, even more to earn our Shares, and a truly hilarious and Tina Fey-esque miracle to merit a DM. These cards? Tot…

Valentine's Day cards for your beloved geek can be hard to come by, especially if you don't want a 24-pack of tear-off Lego/Star Wars figures saying, "Valentine, you're the Obi-Wan for me!" This Etsy shop may have one of the most chic co…
