Somewhere in that is the univers …

Are you a geek who's into computers, video gaming, sci-fi/fantasy, movies, anime, comics or other geeky type stuff? Then this just might be the group for you! We geeks can sometimes be reclusive, shy, socially awkward or just not good at making friends and meeting people. Or maybe we're great at being social but we just want to seek out more of our own kind.
