Gift Guide for Geeks

ft061201.gif

Gift Guide for Geeks is a series of posts I wrote for Christmas 2006 outlining what I thought would make for good gifts.

  1. Introduction - Some personal stories of what the holiday experience is usually like for me.
  2. Gifts.com - I go through one of those gift suggestion websites and try to pick out the good from the bad. TIP: these sites suck.
  3. Gamers - A list of what I think is good for the Xbox 360, Nintendo DS and PC video gamers.
  4. Comic Books - My favorite comic books available in trade paperbacks.
  5. Programming/Tech Books - Top ten recommended books for programmers, managers and anyone working in high tech.
  6. Books - 45 of my favorite books (non-fiction, fiction, sci-fi, fantasy, humour).
  7. Movies - 81 of the best DVD recommendations.
  8. TV series on DVD - some shows I like.
  9. T-shirts - 100+ geek t-shirts that I like.
  10. Last Minute Suggestions - waited too long and need a gift in a hurry? Try these.

I’ve also created an Amazon store if you want to browse the lists with an option to directly buy.
