Listed below are links to weblogs that reference I'm (only) a mid-level nerd:
» How Nerdy Are You? from Straight from the Barrel...
Okay, this one's hilarious. Apparently I am a bit more of a nerd than Phil Gerbyshak, but then again, I could have told you that. What's your nerd score? Thanks for the link, Phil!... [Read More]
» I’m NOT a Geek! from Manage To Change
I’m less nerdy than Phil Gerbyshak! But unlike Phil I was trying to prove that I WASN’T a nerd (geek or whatever you’d like to call it). [Read More]

Phil, I'm a mid-level nerd too! But you beat me; I only scored 71.
Now, if there were a test for relationship geek ... well, your score would be out of the ballpark! (mixed metaphors, but you know what I mean LOL)

Connie - Glad to hear I'm nerdier than someone :)
Thanks for the shout about the relationship geek test. You'd do well on that one too no doubt.
Perhaps I'll make one of those...Hmmm....Interesting :)

Apparently you just barely missed "High-Nerd." (That's my ranking at 80.) I'm betting you missed out because of the friends questions. ;)
Posted by: EM Sky | June 03, 2007 at 11:45 AM
Hey there EM!!!
Yeah, if I had more friends, I would have scored higher, or is it lower?
Fun stuff! Thanks for playing along. You're one of my favorite "nerdy" friends, and I mean that in the coolest possible way!
Posted by: Phil Gerbyshak | June 03, 2007 at 12:12 PM
I got a 92. I think it was because I use an RPN calculator and am pretty good with the Periodic Table?
Fun stuff, Phil - Great work!

I got a 92. Maybe it corresponded to Mn = Maganese and not Minnesota?

Dwayne and Michael - Y'all are too nerdy for me! Thanks for playing along!
Posted by: Phil Gerbyshak | June 04, 2007 at 10:55 PM
Hey Phil,
So I just had to take the test and see how nerdy I am, and I know my kids wouldn't be surprised! I came out at 97. Wow! Didn't realize I was that nerdy... must be that EECS background which enabled me to answer so many nerdy questions (RPN calculator, programming languages, chemistry, etc.).
The real question is, am I proud of this fact or embarrassed??
Posted by: Becky Carroll | June 05, 2007 at 12:18 PM
Becky - VERY funny. I can't answer your question for you. Proud...embarassed...Both work for me. And I won't tell more than a few thousand people. I promise!
Posted by: Phil Gerbyshak | June 05, 2007 at 10:11 PM
I got an 82% on the test which makes me a high-level nerd! I already knew this... I'm the type of person that nearly hyperventilates while watching videos for new technology. In fact, I posted about Microsoft Surface on my blog the other day... Goodness, I better go get a paper bag! I'm getting excited about it again! :)
Thanks for the fun test - what a great idea. :)

Erin - Microsoft Surface is pretty darn cool. I'm excited about it too. Does that make me a nerd? Oh well :) At least I'm in good company with you.
