Nerdy, Yet Smooth

Calrissian

It was one year ago today that I started up Geordi Calrissian. And it has been great to have a place to share my thoughts and ideas about nerd life for a 30 something Black man in America. I have no clue as to how many people regularly read this blog. But, if you find your way here, I hope you truly enjoy it!

Here are some stats to go with that first post:

• Total views: 5600+
• Total posts: 147
• Most hits in one day: 91 on 09/23/2009
• Most popular post: New Star Wars MMO Trailer – 212 views

• Search terms that lead here: lagos nigeria – 556 views (still don’t get this one)
• Top referrer: http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2008/12/black-googlers-network-building.html

So happy birthday GC! And here is to many more.

Geekout My Work Desk

Since moving into my new job, my work desk is kinda boring. Part of the reason is that I am not sure what would constitute “appropriate” for a contractor at a government facility. But still, I really need to get some inspiration going in my workspace.

I saw this pic over on IO9.com today. I’d love to put this wee lil’ Cylon near my computer to let folks know my steez. Here are links to a few other desktop goodies I’d love to have. Anyone want to donate? I accept checks, money orders, cash, and will sign up for PayPal if you want to go that route.

• Love this BSG poster (also from QMx)
• The Cubes (from ThinkGeek)
• Gotta have Lando (from starwars.com)
• Can’t forget Geordi (from startrek.com)
