GTO very nearly derailed this morning, and it's all thanks to this Technology Review article on "Gifts for Geeks." With a siren-song headline like that, it took all of our self-restraint to come back to the land of the Daily Scan. Don't miss this roundup of gift ideas "for the science enthusiast in your life," as TR puts it. While the GTO community will enjoy the genome sequence from Knome or the (much cheaper) customized DNA portrait designed by an immunologist, our favorite is the wi-fi detector shirt. Plug three batteries into a pocket, and bars on the shirt light up when you're in range of a good wireless signal. Sure, a sniffer would be much more subtle, but this gift list is all about geeking out.
