How To Be a Geek Goddess – As if you needed that type of thing.
Many of our readers are bloggers who are proficient designers, SEO optimizers and all around tech geniuses. Many of our readers are bloggers who know how to post from a blogging platform, Tweet a little and use Facebook. Some of you, we know, are simply folks who sit at home entering contests just for fun. We’re cool with all of you, and though we certainly identify more with the first group, this review is leaning a little toward the latter groups.
Christina Tynan-Wood’s How To Be a Geek Goddess from No Starch Press is geared specifically towards women who want to know more about all sorts of technology. Whether you’re buying a computer, surfing the web, shopping for a cell phone, checking your email, wanting to keep your kids safe on the web ro are wandering aimlessly in the electronics aisle, Christina has you covered. She has a great grasp of how the “average” woman and the “average” man differ (yes, I know…none of us are “average”…) and she gives the non-geek woman a comprehensive and incredibly easy to read & understand guide to today’s tech in this book.
How To Be a Geek Goddess is going for only $16 at Amazon right now, and qualifies for free super saver shipping.

I speak fairly reasonable “geek” — although that’s mostly so I can communicate with my husband, who handles the majority of the “Special Projects” around here. There are still the occasional weird interchanges when ~HE~ is convinced he’s making sense and ~I~ am convinced he’s regressing back to when he first arrived here from Mars…
March 5th, 2009 at 10:59 pm
Hahaha! Good one. I’m married to a geek too, so I totally get it.
