ultimate geek girl

I was trying to copy some files to another folder on my computer this weekend, as part of my “summer cleaning” of my computer… and lo and behold, I was moving files with the same names, but I wanted to keep the original copy.

We’ll be giving away 5 prize packages in September, and we want you to participate!

What are we looking for?

Any product or service that helps them achieve the goals of productivity, blogging, technology, better living and web applications are welcome: books, lecture CDs, consulting services, software, desk supplies, office equipment, home organizing tools, style and fashion items – and probably dozens of other things we haven’t even thought of! And if you’re a retailer, of course, gift certificates or store credit make great prizes, too.

1. One Click Plugin Installs – Installing a plugin will be much easier with the ability to click a button or link and the plugin installs automatically! Plugins with similar features are One Click Plugin and Plugin Central.

Gas prices are through the roof and most Americans do not live anywhere near public transit. So, people are shifting their extra money to gas, but what fun is gas? You surely can’t play with it or talk to it.

So, here are 7 Ways to Entertain Yourself for Free - both on and offline - but tied back to technology one way or another - because we wouldn’t be geeks if we didn’t figure out how to tie it back to a computer or a piece of hardware or software, right?

At least once a year, everyone declares they are going to get in shape and many people join gyms.

If you are in college, you probably have a free or discounted gym on your campus! Also, check out gyms with discounts for going early in the morning or late at night, or for having a friend sign up with you.

People quit going to the gym for various reasons, but here are a 10 ways to keep the mojo going.
