I’m not so sure about the other shirts on this site, but I love the ‘Skywalker & Son‘ tshirt at ‘La Fraise’. How can you get any more geekily cool than that? Sure, you can blatantly display computer jokes and binary on your person, but this one is almost subtle. It looks normal at first, until you give it a second look.

I want one.

I found a new site with things to drool over: TOPGADGET. I’m not sure about the things like the ‘Q-link’ pendants, but darn those watches are something I really want! I’ve also wanted the EcoSpheres for awhile.

Even though the site is UK and I’m not… I can still look and drool.

For April Fools Day, ThinkGeek introduced the 8-bit tie. Supposedly, if you purchased you would get ‘retro’ geek points instead of the numerical number normally displayed (thus making it easy to tell the jokes from the non-jokes).

I thought the tie was pretty cool, and so did others apparently. I don’t know how many people emailed ThinkGeek, telling them that they wanted the tie, but it must have been dozens; at least judging by the message now displayed on the tie page:

Hey! You! Quit emailing us to make this for REAL already We promise, we’ll make it. In fact we are already working on it. You’ve just forced our hand! Click the ‘email me when available’ link above to get notified! Thanks! I guess the joke is on us this year :p

I want the tie, but I’m also waiting for them to make the Piranhaz - R/C Battle Fish a reality.
