Our Top Geek Gifts for Valentine’s Day

Valentine’s Day is supposed to be a time of love and affection. It’s usually full of chocolates, flowers, and cards – but what should you buy for the geek in your life? Shopping for someone who’s tastes are outside the norm doesn’t have to be difficult.

What Geek Girls Like

If you’re stuck on Valentine’s Day gift ideas for a geeky girl, why not just ask her what she’d like? Most geeks are pretty practical, and that way you’ll be sure to get her something she loves. Find a way to make the presentation of it romantic, but give a gift she can use and enjoy.

What Geek Guys Want

Unique Valentine’s Day gifts for geeky guys are easier. Whatever you know your guy enjoys, get him something related to that. Most likely, that’s going to be a video game or something to do with TV or computer equipment.

If you don’t want to ask your geek, or you want your gift to be a surprise, you could look for something that goes along with one of his or her hobbies. Even his or her favorite shows on DVD could be a good choice. Most geeks aren’t that into sports, so you might want to avoid those, but gifts with some thought behind them are always winners.

Naughty ChaCha Answers

Just about every company out there is working on smart programs.  Unfortunately, all AI is not created equal.

The free mobile search engine, ChaCha is “supposed” to give it’s users the best answer to their questions.

The ChaCha software allows you to ask any question and request information on any subject.  Then it will reply with the best answer available.

Users rate the answers ChaCha gives, meaning early adopters will be doing most of the grunt work.  ChaCha beta testers claim it’s accurate most of the time and will improve as time goes on.

I blame the beta testers for answers like these.  You just know they were correcting ChaCha’s answers with nothing but porn.  A regular geek giggle-fest!
