Oh, It’s Tuesday: Puttin’ the Tagline in Your Geek

So because of the book, there are a ton of new people on Fierce and Nerdy these days. Welcome! Welcome! But you’ve probably noticed something strange about this site. That’s right, we’re not actually “puttin’ the chic in your geek.”

You see, when I first started Fierce and Nerdy, I imagined that it would be a haven for girl geeks everywhere. We’d talk about all the things girl geeks like to talk about and leave the boys to their BoingBoing and the like. But then I invited one boy to contribute and then another and then another, until the next thing you know we had a very, very rare thing to find on the old interwebs — an equal site. I’d take credit for this, but I totally didn’t mean for it to happen, and I’m still rather stunned that we’ve achieved such a rare feat. I’ve been racking my brain for another site that has a thiscloseto equal number of boy and girl contributors, and I can’t come up with one.

It occurs to me that “puttin’ the chic in your geek” not only doesn’t fit but also manages to misrepresent what our site is all about. So yeah, we need to brainstorm a new tagline.

Got any ideas? Here’s what I’ve come up with so far.

Fierce and Nerdy — It totally computes

Fierce and Nerdy — We come bearing gifts

Fierce and Nerdy — We’ve got your geek right here

Fierce and Nerdy — Because we said so

Fierce and Nerdy — Run geek that

Fierce and Nerdy — Let them eat pi!

Any of these resonating? If so, let us know in the comments.  We also want to hear your tagline ideas, b/c we’re gathering up suggestions today, then we’ll run an official poll next Monday. Remember, I renamed my freaking book according to the results of a Fierce and Nerdy poll, so this new tagline business is seriously in your hands. Throw out some names, and make ’em good!

100% Fierce and Nerdy,
