Call for ideas: The 43 Folders Geek Gift Guide
Merlin Mann | Oct 13 2005
Reader Jeff Click emailed to re-remind me of an idea I'd meant to act on last holiday season and never did: the 43 Folders Geek Gift Guide. Whee, presents! I'm also thinking of opening the floor to people who want to write mini-reviews of beloved schwag for use in the guide. So, assuming a bunch of you are geeks or have a cuddly little geek that you love, what would you like to see covered in the guide? So far I'm thinking:
Gimme more ideas. What do you want to know about? What kind of comparisons would be useful? What might you want to review yourself? And apart from fresh dungeon dice and a new inhaler case, what's the one thing that will thrill the geek in your life this holiday? Update 2005-10-25 21:05:35Disclosure: I will almost certainly end up making a small percentage off readers' purchase of some items reviewed in the Gift Guide. Also, John Wayne wasn’t really a cowboy, your Mom is the tooth fairy, and Bruce Willis was actually dead the whole time. Thanks, and sorry for any confusion. 24 Comments

iWood? First, it's a rather stupid name. Second, and much more importantly - a case made out of tropical woods (Mahogany)? Way to go with the environment-friendliness. You might ask for delivery by Hummer.... If you have to do it, pick pear or walnut. And if you want to make it a gift that hopefully inspires thinking, plant a tree in the recipients name at the same time. » POSTED IN:
