MSNBC: 7 Gadgets that Make You Look Like a Jerk

Posted by | 12/12/2008 | 6 Comments

MSNBC has a little slide show that offers up 7 Gadgets that make you look like a jerk. Far be it from me to call one person’s gadget choice jerk-worthy and I’m sure folks around here won’t be too surprised by most of what’s on the list. Everything from Bluetooth headsets (hey, I wear one everyday) to iPod accessories populate the list, but there are some curious entries as well. Linux? Tivo? Not sure I agree with the logic there. At any rate, it is entertaining reading for a Friday afternoon.

So, what gadgets are too geeky for you to be seen with?

    What a strange article. It probably started with the Bluetooth headset and then they had problems following it through.

    I don’t know, if you read all of their descriptions, they all make sense.

    Like all MSNBC news it is almost interesting but falls short where it matters, on content.

    This is the most ridiculousthing I’ve read in a long time. I agree with the BT headset, I wear mine while on the phone and take it off when I’m done. but the rest of them were really a streach.
