Geektastic Webcomics That Deserve More Attention Than They Have Received

by James Bishop | 1:58 pm, June 17th

There are an absolute plethora of webcomics out there. Some have lasted for years while others are only just now starting out. Some are known for their humor, their brevity, their wit, their unique style or really any combination of these and many more. Some follow strict linear plots while others are just a jumbled mass of comics with a sort of tangible reality stretched to cover them.

So, the chances are good that there’s at least one that will strike your incredibly niche fancy. Due to the ways in which the geeky demographics mix, if you’re reading this list on this site, chances are even better for at least one if not a whole bunch to be spot on. In fact, you might already know and love XKCD and Dinosaur Comics.

Anyway, looking for something to get you in the holiday spirit? Look no further.

by Susana Polo | 2:31 pm, March 21st

Kids educational website BrainPOP have a great animated short celebrating the life of a historical figure who was English nobility, a child of Lord Byron, a friend of Charles Babbage, a mathematician, the first programmer, and a woman.

Pay attention, Computer Engineer Barbie. This is Ada Lovelace. Programmer of the old school. Yeah, back when it took a room of clockwork to add and subtract. Back when using punch cards was the next big innovation. Respect.

Sock it to ‘em, Ada!

If you won’t be celebrating this year, then we hope you can join us in relaxing, hanging out, having a nice Sunday, and picking up some heavily discounted candy come Monday morning.  But you can probably skip this post.

Because we’d like to highlight some places to get your geek a gift.  Whether they’re a guy or a girl, whether its you or them (you can forward a link, right?).  If it won’t ship in time, hopefully we can still provide some inspiration.
