GeekSugar – A Blog We Luv

I’ll be the first to admit that I’m a geek. And as such, I read a number of geek blogs. As great as they are, let’s face it. The majority of geek blogs are written by men, for men. So where is the techno-savvy woman to go for her daily dose of geek news?

I’ve been a member of StumbleUpon for a while now, but I had never really used it much until just a few nights ago. As I stumbled through the World Wide Web, I discovered GeekSugar, a tech blog written specifically for women! I may never leave my computer again.

She blogs about all things geeky – tech news, product reviews, tutorials, and lots more. One of my favorite regular features is Totally Geeky or Geek Chic? in which a new and unusual product is presented. Readers vote on whether the item is totally geeky or geek chic. I love the Fuze Necklace, which “combines the natural beauty of quartz crystal with the geeky beauty of glowing LEDs.”

I’d like to highlight a couple of other posts that I enjoyed.

GeekSugar is one of a dozen blogs run by Sugar, Inc. Sugar’s vision is “to be the definitive online media company for trendsetting, passionate women ages 18-44.” Other blogs in the Sugar Network cover such topics as celebrity, fashion, shopping, beauty, entertainment, food, health, pets, and more. Sugar boasts more than five million unique visitors per month.

In order to comment on GeekSugar or any other blogs in the Sugar Network, you first must join TeamSugar. TeamSugar is a social network for women – not unlike Facebook and some of the other social networking sites that have become so popular in recent months and years. TeamSugar members have profile pages that allow them to share photos, videos, and bookmarks. Other features include a friend list and Chatter, a microblogging tool similar to Twitter.

So what are you waiting for? GeekSugar is only a click away.
