A GEEK according to Wikipedia is;

“A person who is interested in technology, especially computing and new media.”

There are also a number of other less charming definitions available (but we will ignore those for now).

I remember when I was growing up the word “Geek” was always used in a very derogatory fashion and you would do everything in your power to avoid being referred to as a geek. These days its not so, with tens of millions of self professed geeks on the web it seems to be the latest buzz and you are not quiet cool unless you are a geek.

There is good reason for this, geeks have shown the world that using technology and social media (Twitter, Facebook, Blogs, etc, etc) is a phenomenally powerful and fun way to communicate with people from around the corner and around the world.
