The BBook of Geek Paperback - 2008

by Brian Briggs

Part reference, part satire, all geek--this book presents the irreverent and humorous guide to every subject that geeks love from BBspot.com, the world's greatest tech humor site (TheRegister.com).


From the publisher

The Only Geek Humor Book You'll Ever Need

Your first love was a Commodore 64. You are fluent in Elvish. Your perfect weekend involves World of Warcraft, Half-Life, and multiple viewings of Office Space. You've already booked your trip to next year's Comic-Con. You are a geek, and this is the book for you.

Part reference, part satire, this hilarious guide from the genius behind BBspot.com simultaneously pokes fun at and celebrates every subject close to a geek's heart--from The Matrix to MacGyver, from Linux to Stan Lee. Covering the eight pillars of geek knowledge--science, literature, hardware, software, gaming, the Internet, TV, and movies--The BBook of Geek offers a Vulcan salute to geeks everywhere.

Top 11 Reasons to Buy this BBook:

11. Secret code on page 42 unlocks the secret to life, the universe, and everything.
10. It has fewer pages than the average video card review.
9. There aren't wireless connections everywhere and you'll need something to read.
8. It is required reading for those wishing to participate in Web 3.0.
7. We promise no Ents will come after you for buying paper products.
6. It is the BBook you're looking for, move along, move along (to the cash register).
5. Loads more quickly than any page on the Internet.
4. Plenty of pictures with which to blackmail the author included at no extra charge.
3. Cthulhu waits for you to buy this BBook.
2. Like the Klingons say about this book, "It is a good day to buy!"
1. Playing "Where's Brian" in the pictures is much easier than those Waldo books.
