Geekologie is a popular geek blog dedicated to the recognition of gadgets and technology. Each article is coupled with humorous commentary about the featured story or item written by the blog's only author.[2][3] Geekologie was founded on April 2, 2006, and the first post appeared on April 4, 2006.[4] On October 22, 2012 Time Magazine recognized Geekologie as one of the "25 Best Blogs of 2012".[5]

Geekologie is updated multiple times a day with articles on gadgets, video games, consumer electronics and popular culture related to games and movies.[2] Gmail, Google's webmail service, as well as many other RSS readers, has included Geekologie as a default RSS feed, pulling the latest articles which appear at the top of all user's mailboxes.[6] In March 2008, Geekologie was featured on G4TV's Attack of the Show.[7] It has also been nominated for "Best Computer or Technology Weblog" from Weblogs, Inc. in 2008 where it competed with Gizmodo, Lifehacker, and Engadget.[8]
