This Week in Blogs: Broken Umbrellas, Better Off Soaked

We get a lot of comments and emails sent to us here on Geekadelphia, and believe me when I tell you, we read every single one. Some of you leave links to your respective websites, and we notice! For those of you who are a bit shy, don’t be. We want to know what you’re [...]


Comic Con’s Battlestar Galactica Panel Recap

Unfortunately I sat on the sidelines again this year for San Diego Comic Con.  Hopefully when I find the time to attend one, I can grab a press badge and get just a little bit closer to Grace Park.  Wait, what am I talking about, this is the LAST SEASON of Battlestar Galactica.  Noooo!
Thankfully Misfits [...]


Geekadelphia Gets Some Local Press! Thanks Philly Weekly!

We’d like to say a big thank you to the awesome people over at the Philadelphia Weekly, especially Liz Spikol and Alli Katz (who you might know from her Etch-A-Sketch art). Liz did  nice write up about us in the Weekly (Page 27!) in her Lit Gloss column, and Alli stopped by the Tim Quirino [...]


This Week in Blogs: Philadelphia Daily Photo

Photo by Stiffa
It’s always a good day when I discover a new Philadelphia blog worth visiting on a daily basis. Someday, I hope to run one.
Everyone check out Philadelphia Daily Photo. Stiffa’s site isn’t new by any means, but it’s new to me. The premise is simple. One new photo from Philadelphia, every single day. [...]


DIY Google Image Searches in Philadelphia: Rittenhouse Square

Well, I said I was going to do it. Here they are.
Over the past week, I’ve been wandering around Rittenhouse with a little sheet of paper, making my DIY Google Image Searches. I got a lot of strange looks, but it was worth it. Special thanks to my pal Katie for coming out with me [...]


Laying Down & Text Messaging… While On A Motorcycle

Check out this absolutely ridiculous video of a man laying down on his motorcycle while text messaging.
Just for the record, while we don’t approve of this dangerous activity, it is most certainly awesome. We’re also pretty sure that’s how our pal D-Mac from Philadelphia Will Do blogs while on his way to the office.
Motorcycle [...]


The Big Picture: Awesome Blog That Shows… Well, Big Pictures

Nice picture, right? Spaceship taking off. Big puffy clouds. Blue sky.
Well, as a photo that’s only 513x pixels wide, it really doesn’t do the original photo justice, which is almost 1000 pixels wide.
That’s one of the most frustrating things about having a blog. You want to share this fun content you find on the web [...]


Things Shaped Like Ducks: A Blog All About That

Oh Shannon and Caitlin, you two are far too creative for your own good. These two gals have a hysterical blog up, This Peanut Looks Like A Duck, where they blog about all things duck-like. From peanuts, to zucchini, to fondue pots, the blog is a wealth of duck shaped foods and objects.
Pay the blog [...]


Despair Wear: Created To Make Fun of Geekadelphia

Despair Wear have a hysterical line of t-shirts up for grabs, and this one is, without a doubt, my absolutely favorite. Printed on American Apparel, the shirts will run your pockets a solid $20 (not including shipping), but hey, totally worth it, right? Especially if you’re paying using your blog’s Google Ad money.
It’ll only take [...]


Sleeveface: Amazing Activity For Vinyl Collectors

What is Sleevefacing? Their blog defines it as one or more persons obscuring or augmenting any part of their body or bodies with record sleeve(s) causing an illusion. Jeff over at Used Wigs provided the link to this, and I’ve gotta say, it’s absolutely hysterical.
The images range from the humorous to the extremely creative.

Here’s [...]
