I agree with PJ. The definitions have changed, it seems, over the last ten years orso. Now everyone wants to be a geek. It’s the “geek squad.” Some ass came up with an idea on how to bring it back and capitalize on it. And now there is all this debate on the differences in definition between the two, geek and nerd. Which is superior to the other.
It’s rediculous. The ‘nerd’ creates. The ‘geek’ is a utilizer, user, or fan of what the ‘nerd’ creates. And the ‘dweeb’ knows nothing, i.e. jack shit. Screw all these new ads and movies and idiots who want to change it all around. It started this way in the nineteen-fifties. Delude yourselves if you choose. Still doesn’t change the facts.

@PJ

I do coding: PHP, PL/SQL, Java, Javascript, MySQL, Oracle, typical web-design stuff (XHTML, gfx, etc). I do it on either my Linux OR my Mac (or, sadly my Winblows box at work). Does this make me a hybrid? A Neek or a Gerd?

Here’s my theory:

Nerds do most of the coding and create the technology. Geeks use the technology created by the nerds and implement what the nerds have made for the masses. Geek examples: web designers, 9rules/TypePad bloggers. Linux you’re a nerd, Mac you’re a geek. Geeks adopt early and come up with new ideas for nerds to work on. Nerds get ideas working. Geeks use technology to get popular. Nerds are not popular.
