Girls of Geekdom calendar. It's a cool idea, but I think the execution could use some tweaking. Damned if I can articulate how at this early hour, though.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
msbelle will be amused to know I got an email from a Derek Sheppard this morning. And it isn't spam.
I think it is time to fire up the humidifier. My head is being stupid and ...something. There's a word for it but it escapes me this early and under the influence of sudafed.
mmm Dr. McDreamy. afraid of ita's link.
I'm hoping everyone in FL is ok and stays dry.

Glasses?
eta: also, what bon bon said.
Well, I don't think they have to be sexy. Which might sound like I'm saying the geek bar is set low -- that's not what I mean. But it's not what I'd fix.
I think it's the concept of each shot, the conceit of each one, isn't worked hard enough. I think I like the word geek one best. The others feel like a woman in her underwear in front of a backdrop. Just that.

nor are the girls geeky. They just look like soft core porn people with geeky background images.
ETA or what ita said
Something about their expressions are so empty, like all they were asked to do was give their best come-hither stare with no additional direction.
The retro gamer one bothers me. A gun to your head? Treat it like a penis! That's the point!

This, yeah. It looks like they're going for a non-threatening kind of "generic bikini fantasy chicks use computers too!" vibe rather than facing the idea that someone might find geekiness sexy.

Yeah, show a chick with a big LCD screen running Linux, with about five terminal windows open....
