moma icon watch!

Watch Out
IT geeks love nothing more than accessories that remind them of their computers. (It’s true!) So they’ll love this designy MoMA watch that looks like a vintage icon ($75).

sparkle labs!

Light Up
Pyros are obsessive-compulsive nerds in disguise. Have them try this science-is-fun Discover Electronics kit by Sparkle Labs, created by a couple of NYU grads in a Soho lab ($50).

aiaiai ear buds!

Listen In
Brand whores are such a bore. These colorful, anything-but-white Aiaiai earbuds will impress music nuts with their studio-engineered sound quality and coolness factor ($65).

pylones web cam!

Clip On
It’s hard to feel sexy while making kissy faces to a robotic eye embedded in a laptop. Get in the mood with this old-school-looking Pylones webcam ($42). Just don’t pull a Leighton Meester.

obsolete!

Book It
Appreciate technology’s primitive moments (landlines, Rolodexes, buffering) with Obsolete, an Encyclopedia of Once Common Things Passing Us By, by NYC’s Anna Jane Grossman ($11).
