The Geekiest Thing You’ve Ever Done
WHAT’S THE GEEKIEST THING YOU’VE EVER DONE?
While I probably have a long list of them, the other day has to be one of the more memorable. Drew McLellan and I met up at the Tate Modern in London, then went over to meet with Rachel Andrew and the small person, pick them up, and go off for some rest and relaxation.
Rachel and the small person were still busy, so Drew and I sat in his car in a seedy part of London with lots of student housing all around. What’s the first thing we do? Grab our computers and see if we can find an open WiFi network. Which we did.
So there we sat waiting, checking email, showing each other photos on Flickr, reading blogs, and even live blogging the experience.
Truly funny, truly geeky!
Your turn.

I was a Star Trek fan.
June 14th, 2005 at 1:48 am
Oh where to start!
Seriously, there’s so many things.. going to opening night premieres for Star Wars 3 times in a row, having a house remodelled and focusing only and entirely on making sure that there is a cat-5 cable coming out of the wall for instant Internet access, being too lazy to grab a pen and instead grabbing the laptop/keyboard to jot notes down…
Or y’know, writing innuendo in CSS syntax. That’s pretty sick.
June 14th, 2005 at 1:51 am
I’ve set up an email account and blog for my baby who is still 7 weeks away from being born.
June 14th, 2005 at 2:00 am
I spent the whole of a UK bank holiday Monday in my undies coding my Ceefax Viewer widget for Mac OS 10.4
June 14th, 2005 at 2:07 am
I excitedly showed my wife my signed copy of ‘Designing with Web Standards’ when I got home from @media last week.
I got told I was a geek.
June 14th, 2005 at 3:22 am
programming itunes for firefox (flash for playing the mp3s, ajax for the gui, php/mysql to handle the files/search/…) and than never using/releasing it.
June 14th, 2005 at 3:23 am
just to prove it can be done.
June 14th, 2005 at 3:28 am
Getting all the housemates into a chat window to discuss what flavour pizzas we want for dinner. And then ordering them over the net.
June 14th, 2005 at 3:29 am
Please note that this wasn’t because any of the housemates weren’t physically colocated at the time — just it was easier to get everyone to talk online than to assemble them in the living room over a menu ::rolleyes::

btw: best story on geekyness EVER (douglas adams, last chance to see):
(… observing birds on some island…)
I have a well-deserved reputation for being something of a gadget freak, and am rarely happier than when spending an entire day programming my computer to perform automatically a task that it would otherwise take me a good ten seconds to do by hand. Ten seconds, I tell myself, is ten seconds. Time is valuable and ten seconds’ worth of it is well worth the investment of a day’s happy activity working out a way of saving it.
The bird we came across was called a megapode, and it has a very similar outlook on life.
It looks a little like a lean, sprightly chicken, though it has the advantage over chickens that it can fly, if a little heavily, and is therefore better able to escape from dragons, which can only fly in fairy stories, and in some of the nightmares with which I was plagued while trying to sleep on Komodo.
The important thing is that the megapode has worked out a wonderful labour-saving device for itself. The labour it wishes to save is the time-consuming activity of sitting on its nest all day incubating its eggs, when it could be out and about doing things.
I have to say at this point that we didn’t actually come across the bird itself, though we thought we glimpsed one scuttling through the undergrowth. We did, however, come across its labour-saving device, which is something that it’s hard to miss. It was a conical mound of thickly packed earth and rotting vegetation, about six feet high and six feet wide at its base. In fact it was considerably higher than it appeared because the mound would have been built on a hollow in the ground which would itself have been about three feet deep.
I’ve just spent a cheerful hour of my time writing a program on my computer that will tell me instantly what the volume of the mound was. It’s a very neat and sexy program with all sorts of pop-up menus and things, and the advantage of doing it the way I have is that on any future occasion on which I need to know the volume of a megapode nest, given its basic dimensions, my computer will give me the answer in less than a second, which is a wonderful saving of time. The downside, I suppose, is that I cannot conceive of any future occasion that I am likely to need to know the volume of a megapode nest, but no matter: the volume of this mound is a little over nine cubic yards.
June 14th, 2005 at 3:31 am
I’m not sure about geekiest ever, but the first that came to mind: Opening all the official CSSZenGarden designs in separate Firefox tabs so I could go through counting the number of liquid/fixed/elastic layouts… that was fairly geeky.
June 14th, 2005 at 4:54 am
Too many to mention, but I think the C64 logo generator is up there with the Star Trek LCARS navigation in CSS
June 14th, 2005 at 5:29 am
I’ve done tons for unforgivably geeky stuff but most recently, After the @media conference I did the touristy thing and walked around london. I however checked my wifi detector about every 5 minutes, not that I had my laptop, just that I wanted to see where the hot-spots were.
June 14th, 2005 at 6:01 am
I named our cat Javascript.
I also frequently IM Kate when she is in the same room as I am, though usually just to get a laugh out of her with questions like “yt?”
June 14th, 2005 at 6:23 am
I went to a video game conference…and I’m female. That takes guts, but still tragically nerdy.
June 14th, 2005 at 6:36 am
I once coded a program in Javascript that continuously computed my life expectancy. It showed the percentage of time I had been alive, relative to my estimated life expectancy. Oh, and this was accurate to the second. It also continuously calculated the number of days (and minutes) I had to live before I could collect Social Security benefits under US law.
June 14th, 2005 at 6:56 am
A few highlights:
I used to live with a good friend. We routinely talked more on AIM than in person, despite being about 10 feet away from each other.
I have a custom license plate - and the domain to match (”geekchyk”).
Most of my serious injuries as an adult have been a direct result of LARPing (live action role playing).
But by far, the geekiest thing I have ever done: tailgating at Star Wars III. We had the collapsable chairs and table, the full spread of food, the whole nine yards.
June 14th, 2005 at 7:10 am
I was visiting Louisiana since my inlaws and parents had wanted me to bring my son down for his first trip. Being just shy of 25, it was easier to meet my parents in Lafayette and ride up to North Louisiana with them, instead of renting a car. Since I wasn’t driving, I decided to catch up on my blogging and sorting pictures. My parents didn’t believe that I was actually on the net while we were driving through the middle of nowhere, La. until my sister wanted to know how I had a new entry with pictures up when we got to my parents’ house.
June 14th, 2005 at 7:40 am
Nothing geekier than getting love notes in XML syntax…. and understanding them…. AND thinking they’re sweet… and then sending one in return. aaaahh… geeky love, nothing better!
June 14th, 2005 at 7:42 am
It wasn’t something that I did, but something I saw. During the recent presidential campaigns, I saw a protest sign that read “</bush>.” Bush supporter or not, you’ve got to love that.
June 14th, 2005 at 7:46 am
Mark,
RE: your bird mound volume calculator.
Is that the volume of the space taken up by the contents over the bird’s eggs, or is it meant to be just the solids over the bird’s eggs?
I ask, because… the solids will compress over time - starting out fairly fluffed with air - hence the volume will therefore decrease over time. Meaning that your calculator would then only be for a snapshot in time…
Just thought you might want to add a few more variables into the mix… in your spare time, that is.
Ok - enough of the ‘funny’…
But, seriously… you might want to gather that code up and offer it to some college/university ornithological program - they may actually find it valuable.
June 14th, 2005 at 7:52 am
I went to the opening show of Star Wars: Return of Jedi - 12:30 PM (just after Noon, if you haven’t got enough eyeopener in you, yet)…
It was raining - well just a little misting.
Stood in the line for about 1 hour, before the doors opened and was only about 75-100 people back.
BTW - this was before people started doing this “for charity” or “to get on the news”.
OH… did I forget to mention… My Mom was with me - she was a huge fan. Guess that’s the “geeky” part - although I despise that label…
June 14th, 2005 at 8:20 am
I had burned 5 CDs of music to play during my wedding ceremony, in the background during the meal, and for the dancing portion. When I got to the site, I found that the old CD changer in their PA system didn’t read CD-Rs.
So I went to Radio Shack about an hour before the wedding and bought a 1/8″ to RCA adapter, a 2f/1m RCA adapter to mix the stereo to mono, an RCA coupler, and a splitter to send the mono signal to both speaker systems. I ran the playlist from iTunes.
June 14th, 2005 at 8:35 am
Hosted a LAN party…
every year for about 8 years…
staffed by hackers and phreaks.
We started out on Token Ring network and a phone line stretched across the yard to the neighbor’s phone box… they had no idea why their phone bill had so many strange and long distance numbers on it.
Keep in mind, this was long before the Internet was available. On the other end of the line was rotary phone attached to an acoustic coupler 300 bps modem.
Yes, that’s right, we were playing BBS door games and trying to hack the local phone co.
June 14th, 2005 at 8:45 am
John:
I hope you got, that this story is not mine, but douglas adams’, the famous author of “the hitchhiker’s guide to galaxy” and it’s from the book “last chance to see” co-authored by zoologist Mark Carwardine in which they hilariously describe sad stuff: species on the edge of extinction.
Adams described himself repeatedly as apple-fan, gadget-fanatic and general geek.
June 14th, 2005 at 9:35 am
Using ICQ to talk to my gf even though she was sitting right next to me. At home. In our living room. With nobody else there.
June 14th, 2005 at 10:43 am
The full title of my degree is:
BSc.Hons. Remote Sensing & Geographic Information Systems
….my life was a lot more geeky from then on!
When I tell non-Geeks that my PC dual-boots into either Linux Fedora Core 2 or Windows XP Pro SP2…they are saying the word ‘geek’ wihtout opening their mouths!
June 14th, 2005 at 10:52 am
I posted a link on a blog a few weeks ago to a site about old computers just because I found the same model of computer than I first ever used…
I’ll be ‘geek-of-the-week’ again and post it here!

Marvel at it’s sexy looks, hot performance, and deep, (very deep!) memory….don’t you just want one?

A Few months back…I was talking to a friend and said: “I’ve just added Techworld.com as an RSS feed in Firefox,”
My friend’s face went blank, “What the hell is an RSS feed you sad geek?”
(And I was thinking how ‘Techworld.com’ was the geeky part!)
June 14th, 2005 at 11:00 am
I tried to sell Firefox to a telemarketer and blogged about it.
June 14th, 2005 at 11:31 am
A similar story: http://meyerweb.com/eric/thoughts/2004/04/23/mission-insignificant/ …and that’s from April 2004, ya latecomer.
Also, I out-geeked Ferrett on obscure points of Elliott S. Maggin “Superman” novelization trivia.
Wait. Does writing my own browser-based slideshow system count?
June 14th, 2005 at 11:52 am
It’s 2am, I’m biking home after a Christmas party here in Minneapolis. I bike past a recently unvacant store front, proclaiming free wifi and to be open in 4 days.
My first thought - I wonder if the wifi is on yet.
Yes, yes it was.
June 14th, 2005 at 12:10 pm
Eric: “…Wait. Does writing my own browser-based slideshow system count?”
Yes - you big geek! # Laughs #
There are some very funny posts on this blog…insightful stuff!
June 14th, 2005 at 12:24 pm
Back in high school and college there were plenty of stories I could tell. But the one I alway remember was after another great session with one of my favorite professors. Standing around outside of the classroom we stood around joking about how cool it would be to talk in binary and even tell jokes that way. We even started talking in ones and zeros to emphasize the point.
And then we all laughed hysterically at our cleverness…
June 14th, 2005 at 1:06 pm
I think the geekiest thing that’s happened to me in the last day or two was knowing someone who got their book reviewed on slashdot

When the original Star Wars trilogy was released on DVD, I went to a “midnight madness” sale at a local store. I wound up buying a set of the DVDs even though I’d already pre-ordered from Amazon.com.
Then, one Sunday afternoon a few months ago, I set out to test sj-free-wifi. This drew a few stares as I walked around downtown San Jose with an open notebook computer.
June 14th, 2005 at 4:02 pm
I have John’s “Standing in line to see “Return of the Jedi” story beat by 3 1/2 hours!
My friends and I cut the last class we had in school that day (P.E.) to SUPPOSEDLY get a head start on waiting in line at the local mall.
It wasn’t raining on our day but it was hot as crap. There were 5 of us so we took turns walking the mall in 1/2 shifts and playing some video game until we were finally able to get tickets to see the movie.

adding a gps receiver to my handheld computer, watching as it communicated with 4 satellites and mapped my longitude, latitude and altitude while standing in my front yard just for fun. when trying to share the excitement of the moment with my family..my husband responded sarcastically, “great, so you know where you are!”
June 14th, 2005 at 4:44 pm
Does getting married to a person met online count as geeky? If it does, I did it!
June 14th, 2005 at 5:28 pm
goodwitch: # Laughs # That’s funny, i can imagine that one quite clearly! Plus you’ve just reminded me of another geeky experience of my own when I was at University….(oh, wait, I’ve just remembered this blog is about ‘the geekiest’…as in, the singular, and I’ve already posted farrrrrr too much already - Molly will ban me at this rate!)….I’ll hold - and save that tale for another time.
June 14th, 2005 at 5:40 pm
I have to say, I went to a discoteque and i was dissapointing with the music, so while i was dancing i pick up my earphone and put the ipod. Nobody notice that I was dancing Orbital music.
June 14th, 2005 at 6:13 pm
Tried to bridge a wireless laptop to an internet connection at my neighbors in my backyard so that we could have Net in the garage where I was having a LAN party.
June 14th, 2005 at 10:20 pm
I wrote a java program that combined random letters from my fiancee’s last name and mine to see what our new name could be. I incorporated rather extensive rules to maximize our chances of getting a usable name, was able to set the length manually or randomly, and could make them in bulk or one at a time. Upon discovering my game, my husband-to-be had trouble deciding if it was geeky and cute or just plain geeky
June 15th, 2005 at 12:40 am
Spending five hours on a sunday with a friend, writing a javascript fix, that will allow IE to understand max-width in CSS? (we later discovered that Dean Edwards was doing the same thing, and sent him our code).
Or, spending the equivalent of $50 to get a T-shirt from thinkgeek (wishing they had an outlet inside EU)?
Being very thrilled about the fact that my girlfriend is learning a very specifik XML DTD, to reformulate old Icelandic sagas (1200AD to 1400AD) into XML, and actually bragging to my colleagues about it.
June 15th, 2005 at 4:38 am
I coded a web service that allows me to upload my shopping lists in XML, and then access it via iMode on my phone: I always forget my list at home when I write it on a paper.
Then I made a website, so I can type my list from anywhere in the world, and I added support for other devices (PDAs, WAP phones); just in case I would change my phone operator and wouldn’t have an iMode Phone…
June 15th, 2005 at 9:50 am
Whipping out my Treo in the middle of Best Buy during Xmas shopping madness and connecting to the web in order to consult my family’s PHP/MySQL enabled Xmas list database before buying my computer scientist Dad some geek gadget, then conferring with my brother about how the web page rendered on the handheld display. –What can I say? It runs in the genes!
June 15th, 2005 at 10:35 am
Hi im from Chile, and i dont have friends who blog, so the experience of makeing the blog and spred it out, was geek, no body could understand (or they just dont what to open), the idea of every person having a webpage where you can open yourself and express in a different way, they dont know. Im making my best so that more of my friends join to blogging put right now, im the only geek with his personal webpage.
Peace world.
June 16th, 2005 at 5:05 am
OK, this wasn’t me, but one of the geekiest things I’ve ever seen was one of our lecturers wearing tshirts with slogans across the chest in binary. What was worse was one of my house- and classmates working out what it said by just looking at it.
June 16th, 2005 at 8:24 am
Does reading all these comments and creating a ‘to-do’ list count as geeky?
June 16th, 2005 at 9:59 am
Daryl: Yes…you geek!
June 16th, 2005 at 11:48 am
One time when I was writing an in class essay I misspelled a word. Immediately I tried to hit command Z on my desk to undo my error. Horribly geeky.
June 16th, 2005 at 11:50 am
I put 2 webcams at next to my window and made them my wallpaper
so i can see what happens outside without looking through the window

I’ve logged 100+ days onto my favorite MMORPG game… and if that’s not bad enough, just about all of my friends are people I’ve met from the game…
Granted, dozens of the 100+ days were just from leaving my computer on all night.
June 16th, 2005 at 8:51 pm
Oh, 100+ days IN THE PAST YEAR
June 17th, 2005 at 7:08 am
Let’s see:
- Wardriving in Lisbon. Anoying other drivers, because of driving so slow: “Here, pull over here!! NOW!”. “No! Keep driving.. sloooow, slooowww”. You get the idea.
- Having some pleasure in handcoding HTML on Notepad and refreshing the browser, to see the page taking shape.

At a bachelor party, I used a plastic drink stirrer to reprogram a stripper’s malfunctioning watch.

@Daniel: That one made me laugh. I almost woke my fiancee up
How about being up since 3:30AM reading all 390+ new posts in bloglines… including this one.

Justin: Go to bed man! #Laughs #
Okay, one more bit of geekiness from me…I’ve just posted on John Oxton’s site and it reminded me that incident I mentioned was quite geeky!
(My exact words): “…Mmm, about that monitor age thing…err, my monitor was 5 years old too…and internal dust accumilation (yeah - who cleans inside their monitors?) caused it to catch fire while I was using it in March! My monitor….up in flames!! I was lucky I had recently bought an electrical-specific fire extinguisher only a few weeks before it happened.”
I bought a ’special’ fire extinghisher for the possibility of my computer catching fire because I use it so much! SUPER-GEEKY.
(And then the monitor does go up in flames - that’s insane!)
June 19th, 2005 at 2:57 am
- building a website for my eldest son the night after he was born (on a tilde-account!)
- naming my second son Tim (as in TimBL)
- iChatting with wife.app even though she is just one flight up

#butt {

Another geeky thing? How about how I messed up the formatting with my last post?
Sorry about that.

using VeriChat on my treo 600 to log on to messenger to see what time my gf wanted to go for pizza while riding on my bike home from work. i could have just called her.

Several years ago as a hobby, I taught myself how to program in Lotus 1-2-3 for Windows (Rel 5). Over the course of about 6 months, I developed BLACKJACK STAT, a statistics-laden blackjack game and then tried to sell it for $21/copy via direct mail ads in my local newspaper. Gave up after losing a few hundred dollars.
June 21st, 2005 at 5:02 pm
I once entered a redesign contest for designbyfire.com that never mounted to anything.
June 22nd, 2005 at 3:12 am
I searched photos for my address book of people I never met or talked to.
June 22nd, 2005 at 5:41 pm
Geekiest thing I’ve ever done in my semi-geeky life (or so I say right?). :p
I went through the trouble of designing an interface with nice buttons that had up/over/down states. Sliced it all up and exported every single piece and all the states. Brought them all into Macromedia Director and programmed the buttons to open programs on my computer. Finally exported the whole thing as an exe file that would run on my desktop as a quick & easy interface to run my most oft-used programs from cuz I don’t want to clutter my desktop with a gajillion shortcuts and too lazy to go into Start > Progra… yadda, yadda, yawn…
:D Great idea no? Wish I could do it in Flash tho.

Zulema:
Check out Object Dock for a Mac OSX style menu for Windows XP
(one of) the geekiest thing(s) I’ve ever done was probably coding a web based application for our March Madness office pool at the newspaper I worked for. Three days before the tournament, the sales manager asked if we could make a bracket for our subscribers… My boss told him there wasn’t enough time. After their meeting, I went in and told him that I already had one done. It’s still in use for all of their march madness promotions to this day.

The geekiest thing I have ever done,
was I bought a bag of flies at the flea market. In Malina a newly found delicate planet.

For father’s day a couple of years ago, my kids gave me one of those watches that syncs off the atomic clock in Colorado. it even had a little satellite dish icon above the time. one night i was at the local healthfood store and ordered a sandwich to go from the deli. They said that it was 8:00 and they weren’t making food anymore. I looked at my watch and said that it was actually only ten til eight. so the cook had to disagree and i blurted out that “my watch is synced to the atomic clock in Fort Collins, Colorado and I KNEW what time it was.” - of all the code i’ve written, all the sci fi movies i’ve seen, that was truly my geekiest moment.
June 29th, 2005 at 8:13 am
did i really post that?
Did I really just do a whole post on how to sing “Happy Birthday” better?
Holy cow.
I think I now have an entry for “The Geekiest Thing You’ve Ever Done”.
It’s a shining moment.
…
June 29th, 2005 at 8:22 am
Heh. There’s my post.
Other geekiest thing: night before my wedding, I’m out for a family dinner. Had read a funny bit online that I thought was funny, so I tried to squeeze it in at an appropriate moment:
“I guess it’s trying to be this year’s #eeeeee!”
Crickets and tumbleweeds at that one…
June 30th, 2005 at 1:08 pm
I am not a geek.
(Most of the time)I don’t know what I am doing (which I think qualifies me for not being geeky?) BUT I had a geeky moment when I was feeling homesick - and ended up checking out the traffic-webcam in my home town!
http://www.bbc.co.uk/london/travel/jamcams/camloco/549702.shtml (I might get one of my relatives to stand on the corner and wave while I am watching - now THAT would be pretty geeky!)
July 4th, 2005 at 1:13 pm
I once had to check to see if I looked tidy enough to go into a meeting without junting round for a comb or a tie without sauce on it - and couldn’t be bothered to find a mirror - so I just turned my webcam on and used that to check.
July 4th, 2005 at 7:51 pm
These are just funny!
My latest: I use MSN Messenger on my iPAQ via GPRS because it’s cheaper to pay for the data than to pay for an SMS (or 4). 20 minutes on MSNM = ~40c =
July 6th, 2005 at 1:29 pm
Programmed a digital randomizer for the game “Twister” after a partynight where we desperatly to play the game, but no one had an analog version of it. This was the first time I got afraid of becoming a geek.
So if you are ever in need for a digital wheel of twister, than you can use this on:

July 6th, 2005 at 1:38 pm
I got even so geeky and paranoid that I just realized that what I did would maybe result in legal consequences for me because of making something like this public. Hope no one at MB is reading this blog. Going to delete the page. Sorry folks, you got to use the “oldschool” version!

Using your story as a comparison I am now attempting but failing to find a story in the recent past (I’m already back 3 years… so far nothing…) where I once did this thing that in no reasonable variation could be considered not-geeky.
Damn.
July 14th, 2005 at 8:08 am
if it’s not too late: I’d like to nominate the latest post by Eric Meyer’s for uber-geek experience:

Arguing nuclear fallout and knowing the exact location of a nuclear explosion analysis book in the library stacks takes more than a few brain matter cells.

The geekiest thing I ever done?
I could tell you…
…but then I’d have to kill myself…

IM conversations with my Mother who was in the next room.
Participating in the 24 hour Blogathon to raise money for the Noah’s Ark Appeal.
Oh, and buying a laptop so that I could sit in my backyard and blog from outside.

The geekiest thing I have ever done was one time I drove all the way from CA to Chicago and back the next day just for a slice of pizza.

I bought a sealed copy of Windows 1.0 off of eBay for $300
I also have a Dell server in my room running debian Linux, heh

in Tokyo, rigging an umbrella so that my laptop can sit out on the (railing of the) veranda in the rain, utilizing neighbor’s WLAN, so that I can sit inside at the end of a long headset cable and skype home to Maine.

I spent a whole british bank holiday weekend debugging the subroutines for my lego robotic arm located in my home lab.

We all agree that the geekiest thing we have ever done is sit here, in kinky_pinky_28’s living room, watching the intermaweb on her 40″ HD LCD TV (from afar) with a remote keyboard and mouse at sillyoclock in the morning discussing the geekiest things that other people had ever done, and deeming some to clearly be ungeekys, and others to be totally rad.
Then we asked each other what the geekiest thing we had ever done was, and thus we were led to writing this post.

Well the geekiest thing i have ever done is when me and my girl friend were having some fun in bed and she wanted to be tied up the only thing i could find to do it with was a very long usb cable.
So yea ive played sex games using computer cableing.

Well I don’t actually travel where unless I have my camera and video camera with me. I take a lot of photos and videos for my websites, and the thought of going somewhere without the cameras really gets to me. I would think of it as a wasted trip without them.
