Nerd Boyfriend: Carson Kresley (Queer Eye for the Straight Guy) for Nerds. Wanna dress like Einstein? Here's where you can buy his shoes.

MC Chris. Nerdcore galore, with some great tunes well worth listening too, including the unlisted Ke$sha autotune parody, I love doing drugs.

Dark Patterns: The Evil That Website Developers Do.

Watermelon Feta Salad. A very cool recipe for these hot summer days.
