    I worked for Google in the UK, is this g33ky enough for you? :glasses:
  • Yes, I am a 'gamer chick' but I also have a geeky job as a Techical Reviewer for a major Home and Auto Insurance firm. I won't sit here and bore you with water mitigation and subro lol, just know it can be detailed. I build/upgrade computers, have read and watched the LOTR numerous times...glasses and a fetish for 5" heels (naughty librarian, whaaa?! lol)

    Do I count as a nerd? I enjoy video games, gadgets, I read fiction literature and astronomy books :)

    I infact have two playstations in my house because I got tired of moving them between my two tvs. I used to have a wii but I got rid of that recently but I do have a xbox ^.^

    I used to play WoW on my 52 inch tv with surround sound and wireless keyboard and mouse.

    I work as a graphic designer so am on the computer constantly. I wear glasses? ^_^

    18+ years in IT
    3 in the trenches doing tech support
    the last 15 as a programmer

    C#/C++ mostly. SQL, etc.
    Spend my free time videogaming.

    For bonus nerd points: I go to Dragon*Con every year, dressing up at least one day, and in 1999 actually sat on a panel.

    UBER NERD!

    Edit:
    I don't know about hot, but I am most DEFINITELY a nerd. And not like these gamer chicks, I'm a study bug science geek. As you can probably tell from my blog.

    Hot also applies. :wink:

    Not sure about hot but def a geek... Spent last 10+ years (since leaving college) in IT. I currently work as Quality Assurance Manager for a software development company. One of the cooler things I get to do is attempt to pen test our software on regular bases.

    yay, love that thread! :)

    May not look it, but I was captain of the bowling team back in high school, top of my class in AP calc, I built my first computer, and in the last month I've read 7 books. At work they refer to my position as the "bean counters", and I do like my glasses. I also played Warhammer 40k and Magic TG when I was younger.

    Does that qualify me for geek/nerd?

    I deff fit in this category ... don't let looks fool you. I prefer reading old western romance and sci-fi novels rather than going on dates with my fiancee. My socks never match and the list goes on.
  • Definitely a nerd (class valedictorian), am I in the running? :)

    I'll submit myself for the geek bit at least.

    Studied sports science, got a degree, then that wasn't enough so did another degree in computers and networks and got a 1st...

    Nowadays work for an ISP, read and submit improvements to RFC's via IEEE meetings, and am an active developer for the Linux kernel, amongst other things.

    I also reverse engineer games consoles as a hobby.

    Do I count? Lol
