    I like to think I'm somewhere along the geek/nerd border...though if I'm honest, I'm probably fully inside nerd territory...

    Then, of course, there's this one..
    That we enjoy great advantages from the inventions of others, we should be glad of an opportunity to serve others by any invention of ours, and this we should do freely and generously.

    Im definitly a geek and surely not a nerd.

    I'd think a nerd is someone who keeps to themself and only does nerdy things. Works on a computer all day and comes home to be on the computer. A pocket protector would'nt look out of place on him.

    I'm a geek because i enjoy joc type activities, work in physicly demanding job. I like computers and tinkering because its mentally challenging and keeps my attention.

    I posted before I saw your venn diagram. But I prefer 'geek' anyway.

    Definitely geek, if we're going solely by Konrad's diagram, which really looks like it ought to be part of a powerpoint presentation somewhere. I used to be more of a nerd, but then worked retail computer sales on commission which forced me to interact with people every day...which wound up making me FAR more outgoing and personable than I used to be. Why, I'm positively friendly.

    Then you're intelligent, socially inept, or obsessive.
