Happy Valentine's Day!
It's that day of the year again, where I briefly turn my website into an emo live journal (wait, does anyone actually use live journal anymore at all? That's so 2002) and fill it with every love/romantic/nerds-are-awesome thing I've come across in the last year. And in keeping with my habit of writing about Obama in any way possible, here's a You Barack My World valentine dedicated to everyone who regularly reads and/or randomely clicked on (which is probably 50% of my traffic), my website.
And thanks to the new design, it's possible to see all the previous Valentine's in one easy to follow page. It's so handy!
And speaking of technology, the Internet continues to help people find their true love, in ever more specific categories. Stuff like Jdate, SweetOnGeeks, and Millionaire Mate are so last century, the new hotness is finding your online message board soulmate, as grouped by internet site. Only want to date people as crazy about WoW as you? They've got you set. Of course one must be careful about misleading photos, as some creative cropping can create some interesting results.
Of course the true way to win a gamers heart would be with some chocolate Mii's
Here's a blog about one guy's adventures in online dating. It seems to prove the saying "The odds are good, but the goods are odd".
Thanks to the YouTube era, it's now possible to sing geeky swooning love songs to anonymous Internet strangers, like this guy did. "I know i'm not clever, I know i'm not smooth But when it comes to ddr i know how to bust a move". You can make this stuff up people!
Here's some more valentine's for the special people in your life, and an article about the new Geek Chic. Most of those people are posers though, I was nerd before nerd was cool!
And finally, I think xkcd says it best:
Will You Be My "It's Complicated" on Facebook?
Pitfalls of dating a computer person
Math doesn't solve everything after all
One for the physics nerds
That's all for this year, tomorrow it's back to more reasons why I think Obama is awesome, and some exciting SXSW news. (you see how I just hyped up an update to get more regular readers? I'm tricky like that see)
