Need the Perfect Gift for Your Favorite Geek Girl?

I am an unabashed geek. And sometimes people think that means that I am difficult to get gifts for. Not true. Sure, I may not want the latest Kate Spade handbag or a copy of Sarah Palin's upcoming memoir. But that doesn't mean I am impossible to shop for. And neither is the geek girl in your life.

So I put together a few of my favorite things to help you out when you're shopping for your geek girl. Good luck!

Mimobot Designer Flash Drives

Lots of Memory with Lots of Style

I love these little drives! First, a girl can never have too many flash drives! Second, these Mimobots are super-stylish. Why have a plain silver flash drive when you can have one that looks like Princess Leia or R2D2! And finally, all of these super-cute Mimobots come with cool content on the drive. I have one from the "Artists Series" and it was filled with wallpaper, icons, screensavers and other content. It's like a gift inside a gift!!

Every geek girl likes a graphic novel

I have spent a little too much time watching my Buffy DVDs. But I only recently discovered the graphic novels (I know, where have I been?!). In any case, I was delighted to discover these - the artwork is AMAZING! I've put a few of my recent Buffy finds as well as a couple of others I'm reading - including an interesting way to learn physics: via manga!

Geek girls love the pre-Victorian era

Now look, before you start to think that geek girls are all electronics and Hello Kitty, I should let you know that something very popular with geek girls is Jane Austen. Seriously. Both classic Jane Austen - and then Jane Austen and zombies. Trust me. Your geek girl will love any of these books!

The Annotated Pride and Prejudice

by: Jane Austen

I ADORE this book in particular. It's the one that really helped me learn to love Jane Austen. The left hand pages are the novel, the right hand pages are notes about the language, customs and culture of the book. Really assists in reading and understanding her books.

Funkeys - Real World and Virtual World Collectables

OK, they say this is for kids - but every geek girl I know likes her collectables AND being able to plug those collectables into a virtual world. Once you get a Funkey, you put it in the Hub and log into the virtual world. Each one you collect gives you access to different levels in the game. I've put a couple of these on my wish list this year.

Tunes for your geek girl's MP3 library

Now, I'm not trying to say that all geek girls like the same music. Some of us like Katy Perry and some of us like Jill Souble (both, coincidentally, having a song called "I Kissed a Girl"). But these are a few that I have found popular among my geek girl friends.

Music on the go for your geek girl

How long has it been since your geek girl got an MP3 player upgrade? This year is the year you should do it for her. The latest iPod has 160 GB of space - lots of room for music, movies, games and other content. Trust me - she'll love it!

Apple iPod classic 160 GB Black (7th Generation) NEWEST MODEL

Amazon Price: $228.50 (as of 02/09/2010)

It's a USB Flash Drive Shaped Like a Lipstick

I have nothing more to say. Why aren't you buying one of these RIGHT NOW?
