			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Looking to geek up your wardrobe? Anyone can wear these <em>Star Wars</em> Rebel Alliance and Empire cufflinks to add some flair to your fancy dress clothes. Well, anyone, but a Wookiee. I&#8217;ve never personally seen a Wookiee wearing a shirt. That goes for Ewoks too.</p>

<p><span id="more-81987"></span>These cufflinks are officially licensed Star Wars merchandise, so you can rest easy knowing that you are helping to fund a new flannel shirt for George Lucas or supporting a future re-edit of the movies. Choose which side you are with. The Rebels or the Empire. Business suits are boring, so why not geek things up a little?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>Tetris</em> is one of those classics that will always be around in one form or another. It&#8217;s available on the NES, the Game Boy, nearly every other console, and now your wrists. These officially-licensed accessories will compliment your shirt sleeves with just the right amount of geekiness.<br />
<span id="more-76779"></span><br />
<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-76780" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Tetris-Cufflinks.jpg" alt="Tetris Cufflinks" width="600" height="600" title="Tetris Cufflinks photo" /><br />
You get the “J” and “T” shapes. Too bad you can&#8217;t drop more from each shirt sleeve and play a game on your arms, but I&#8217;m sure that someone is working on that dream. We might need a special shirt for that, though.</p>
<p>These official <em>Tetris</em> cufflinks are available now for about $14(USD) from <a href="http://www.firebox.com/product/4232/Tetris-Cufflinks?currency_conversion=1">Firebox</a>. After wearing them for that special occasion you will likely feel a sudden urge to play the game again and try to beat your high score.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Last year we featured a pair of <a href="http://technabob.com/blog/2010/05/27/flash-drive-cuff-links/">flash drive cufflinks</a>. Luxury cufflink maker Ravi Ratan ups the ante this year with an even geekier pair of fasteners, perfect for those of you who are known by your loved ones as Support&#8230; Tech Support. Not only are these linkers of cuffs a pair of 2GB flash drives, they can also act as WiFi hotspots.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-71874" title="ravi-ratan-wireless-hotspot-flash-drive-cufflinks-4" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/ravi-ratan-wireless-hotspot-flash-drive-cufflinks-4.jpg" alt="ravi ratan wireless hotspot flash drive cufflinks 4" width="600" height="600" /></p>
<p><span id="more-71868"></span>If like me, you thought that the cufflinks would give you a mobile hotspot on their own, prepare to be disappointed. You have to plug either of them to a computer that&#8217;s connected to the Internet before it can create a network. You do know you can do this for free with software like <a href="http://www.connectify.me/">Connectify</a> already, right?</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-71872" title="ravi-ratan-wireless-hotspot-flash-drive-cufflinks-2" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/ravi-ratan-wireless-hotspot-flash-drive-cufflinks-2.jpg" alt="ravi ratan wireless hotspot flash drive cufflinks 2" width="600" height="600" /></p>
<p>It would have been awesome if they worked like the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MiFi">MiFi</a> and could turn a person into a walking wireless network. You&#8217;ll surely be a hit at parties. People will flock to you so they can go online and post about this dude who has a Wi-Fi hotspot on his wrists. Eh, I guess they&#8217;re still useful, but I&#8217;m just not sure if they&#8217;re worth the price – <a href="http://www.cufflinks.com/polished-silver-oval-wifi-and-2gb-usb-combination-cufflinks.html">Cufflinks.com</a> is selling them for $250 (USD) a pair.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The design of the cufflinks that a man dons tells a lot about his personality. For example, the <a href="http://technabob.com/blog/2011/05/08/bike-cufflinks/">Bike Cufflinks</a> are obviously intended for bikers and cyclists. The <a href="http://technabob.com/blog/2010/05/27/flash-drive-cuff-links/">Flash Drive cufflinks</a> are for the nerdier and geekier men who aren&#8217;t ashamed to where their geekiness on their sleeves. The fool-proof <a href="http://technabob.com/blog/2010/03/16/left-right-keyboard-cufflinks/">Left/Right cufflinks</a>, on the other hand, remind the <del>idiot</del> wearer which is his right arm and which is his left.</p>
<p>And then there are the LED cufflinks called the iCufflinks that want to add a bit more light and sparkle to your cuffs.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/iCufflinks1.jpg" alt="iCufflinks1" width="600" height="462" title="iCufflinks1 photo" /><span id="more-59157"></span>When you put your PC on standby or hibernate your laptop, you see the power button blinking a gentle, pulsating light every few seconds or so. And now you can have that exact same thing going on your cuffs with the iCufflinks (which get their glowing light pattern based on Apple products).</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/LED-cufflinks.jpg" alt="LED cufflinks" width="600" height="455" title="LED cufflinks photo" /></p>
<p>The iCufflinks are an open-source hardware project by Phil Torrone. Each cufflink is made with a custom aluminum power button, a small circuit board that controls the pulsing of the button, and a battery. Since the project is open-source, the schematics and code to control the blinking can all be downloaded from <a href="https://github.com/adafruit">GitHub</a>.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-59258" title="icufflinks_on" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/icufflinks_on.jpg" alt="icufflinks on" width="600" height="341" /></p>
<p>If, however, you&#8217;d rather skip through the constructing part, then you can purchase a pair of the iCufflinks from <a href="http://adafruit.com/icufflinks">Adafruit</a> for $128 (USD).</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We have seen our share of geeky cufflinks around here, like the <a href="http://technabob.com/blog/2010/05/27/flash-drive-cuff-links/">USB cufflinks</a> a while back. I personally have no need for cufflinks. The last time I held a set of cufflinks was in the late 80&#8242;s when my cousin got married, and I didn’t know what they were. If you have the need for cufflinks and you like bikes, we found your set.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-55442" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/bikelinks-2.jpg" alt="bikelinks 2" width="600" height="400" title="bikelinks 2 photo" /></p>
<p><span id="more-55441"></span>These cufflinks are simply called the Bicycle Cufflinks, and they have a sprocket on one side and a crank with a pedal on the other. They remind me of a game piece from Monopoly. The things will link your cuffs nicely with a bit of geek flare.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-55443" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/bikelinks-3.jpg" alt="bikelinks 3" width="600" height="400" title="bikelinks 3 photo" /></p>
<p>They are made by <a href="http://www.gothamsmith.com/products/bicycle-chainring-cufflinks">GothamSmith</a> using a 3D printing process using powdered steel and bronze. Three different finishes are offered, and they will ship in June. Other than the antique looking steel here, you can get a pair that has a silver finish and a pair in gold color. The price for the cufflinks is $59 (USD), but the first batch is already sold out.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-55444" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/bikelinks-tb.jpg" alt="bikelinks tb" width="600" height="400" title="bikelinks tb photo" /></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Looking for sleek, slightly geeky cufflinks? You know Etsy is the place to go if you&#8217;re looking to subtly show off your proclivities while dressed in your best. And with these cufflinks, you can announce your allegiance in the console wars without messing up your look.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-21992" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/tb-cufflinksxbox.jpg" alt="tb cufflinksxbox" width="600" height="450" title="tb cufflinksxbox photo" /></p>
<p>I think what I like best about these cufflinks over some of those we&#8217;ve seen before is the fact that they&#8217;re thin and flat, and even a little dark. From a distance, they&#8217;ll just look like plain ol&#8217; cufflinks. Sneaky.</p>
<p>Of course, if you want to be a little more obvious, you can try these other Xbox-inspired cufflinks, also from the <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=7734418">CufflinkConnections store</a>.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img class="size-full wp-image-21993  aligncenter" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/tb-cufflinkxbox2.jpg" alt="tb cufflinkxbox2" width="600" height="450" title="tb cufflinkxbox2 photo" /></p>
<p>Yeah, <em>slightly</em> more obvious there&#8230; but not as obivous, as, say, Star Wars minifig cufflinks&#8211;which are also available from the same store. Maybe it should be named RandomCufflinkConnections. Or maybe I should stick to blogging, &#8217;cause my store-naming skills are not so strong.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Next time you need to go to a semiconductor semi-formal (see what I did there?), you might want to grab a pair of these clever geeky cufflinks made from old circuit boards. But unlike those shiny new <a href="../2009/10/16/2010-olympics-medals-recycled/">2010 Olympic medals</a>, you can actually tell that these were upcycled from old circuitry.<span id="more-21642"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-21653  aligncenter" title="circuit_board_cufflinks_2" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/circuit_board_cufflinks_2.jpg" alt="circuit board cufflinks 2" width="600" height="564" /></p>
<p>Created by jewelry artist Amanda of the eponymous <a href="http://beadworkbyamanda.blogspot.com/">Beadwork by Amanda</a>, these circuit board cufflinks are the perfect gift for the nerd who has everything. Assuming they have a tuxedo or dress shirt in their closet of course. And <a href="http://www.tuxedo-tshirts-online.com">one of these</a> doesn&#8217;t count.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-21654  aligncenter" title="circuit_board_cufflinks" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/circuit_board_cufflinks.jpg" alt="circuit board cufflinks" width="600" height="520" /></p>
<p>Each set features a one-of-a-kind pattern, but you can specify different circuit board colors including green, dark green, red or blue, as well as whether you want round or square &#8216;links. Each circuit is set into either brass bezel cups and then covered with a durable resin to protect them from wear.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-21655  aligncenter" title="circuit_board_cufflinks_3" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/circuit_board_cufflinks_3.jpg" alt="circuit board cufflinks 3" width="600" height="393" /></p>
<p>Amanda makes a variety of unique circuit board jewelry, including pendants, keychains and money clips over on her <a href="http://beadworkbyamanda.etsy.com">Etsy shop</a>. The circuit board Cufflinks sell for $25 (USD) a pair &#8211; just a little more than that tuxedo t-shirt set you back.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You&#8217;ve been stealing glances at each other the whole night. All you see is that hot little number with the shiny red dress, everything else is black and white. She finishes her drink, and sashays off to the terrace, the light bouncing off her hips as they sway. You adjust your tie and follow her. You reach her side just as she&#8217;s putting a cigarette in her mouth. You twirl your right hand and snap with the left. A modest but firm flame appears on your wrist. Your eyes meet and reflect the flame as she lights up. She inhales for half a second, blows smoke for 3 more, puts her lips next to your ear and whispers, &#8220;Douche.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-21003" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/mini-lighter-cufflinks.jpg" alt="mini lighter cufflinks" width="600" height="600" title="mini lighter cufflinks photo" /></p>
<p>I mean come on! Who else aside from MacGyver can pull off a get-up involving mini lighter cufflinks? Even James Bond in the 70s would&#8217;ve had laser beam cufflinks. Richard Dean Anderson, the cufflinks are sold by YougNeek at <a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=30378999&amp;ref=sr_gallery_16&amp;&amp;ga_search_query=men%27s+accessories&amp;ga_search_type=all&amp;ga_page=8&amp;order=date_desc&amp;includes[]=tags&amp;includes[]=title">Etsy</a> for $40 (USD). They&#8217;re currently sold out, so you might want to use your charms to wrangle a pair off of YougNeek. Or better yet, take a good look at the cufflinks and then go make your own.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I love tiny pendants, cufflinks, barrettes, and other small, innocuous ways of geeking-up an outfit, so <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=7810264">Plastic Paradox&#8217;s Etsy storefront</a> is, for me, pretty much the place to be. But, really, could any <em>Halo</em> fan resist these Master Chief cufflinks?</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-19777" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/tb-halocufflinks.jpg" alt="tb halocufflinks" width="600" height="600" title="tb halocufflinks photo" /></p>
<p>You could get away with those almost anywhere. Does anyone really spend that much time studying your cufflinks, unless you make a point of showing them off? See, they&#8217;re subtle yet showy&#8211;in the right moments.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-19816  aligncenter" title="fire_flower_barettes" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/fire_flower_barettes.jpg" alt="fire flower barettes" width="600" height="535" /></p>
<p>But there&#8217;s all kinds of stuff to be found in the store, from mainstream to the more obscure, to the absolutely adorable&#8230; and by that, I mean these moogle earrings:</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img class="size-full wp-image-19778  aligncenter" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/tb-moogleearrings.jpg" alt="tb moogleearrings" width="600" height="366" title="tb moogleearrings photo" /></p>
<p>If you have a semi-geeky favorite franchise, it&#8217;s likely there&#8217;s something related to it <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=7810264">in this store</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When I saw these <a href="http://www.geekalerts.com/batman-cufflinks/">Batman-inspired cufflinks</a>, I thought, man! Too bad I have no reason to buy cufflinks for anyone. Platinum/rhodium cufflinks are nice enough, but when they mark you out as a regular dude operating at super capacity, you know they&#8217;re awesome.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-17203" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/tb-batmancufflinksplat.jpg" alt="tb batmancufflinksplat" width="600" height="354" title="tb batmancufflinksplat photo" /></p>
<p>Unfortunately, they&#8217;re only available at Bruce Wayne prices: these cufflinks are about $84 (USD) over at <a href="http://www.cufflinks2wear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=82_87&amp;products_id=379">Cufflinks2Wear</a>.</p>
<p>Well, friends, in this time of economic hardship, we&#8217;re here for you. Check this out: all of the awesome at a quarter of the price!</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-17204" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/tb-batmancufflinkssilverplate.jpg" alt="tb batmancufflinkssilverplate" width="600" height="345" title="tb batmancufflinkssilverplate photo" /></p>
<p>These cufflinks, available from <a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=27750308&amp;ref=sr_list_3&amp;&amp;ga_search_query=batman+cufflinks&amp;ga_search_type=handmade&amp;ga_page=&amp;order=date_desc&amp;includes[]=tags&amp;includes[]=title">finkstudio&#8217;s Etsy shopfront</a>, are only $20 bucks! They&#8217;re not platinum (silver plated), but they&#8217;re still pretty nice.</p>
<p>We&#8217;re all about alternatives around here.</p>

<p>Etsy crafter <a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?ref=vl_other_2&amp;listing_id=12505885">pixelparty</a> makes them from shrink plastic (like <a href="http://shrinkydinks.com/">ShrinkyDinks</a>?) and silver-tone hardware. He hilariously notes that &#8220;&#8230;if mario doesn&#8217;t get his princess (who seems to be castle hopping, maybe she&#8217;s the player and mario is getting played) well then he&#8217;ll never be a player. there just aren&#8217;t that many girls into mustaches these days.&#8221; Amen, my friend, amen. Also, overalls are not flattering on a grown man. I&#8217;m just saying.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;ve got more of a penchant for koopas than goombas, don&#8217;t fear- those are available as well.</p>

<p>You can buy them at <a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?ref=vl_other_2&amp;listing_id=12505885">pixelparty&#8217;s shop</a> for $16. He&#8217;s open to custom orders&#8230; that means you&#8217;re on deck, taunting BurgerTime pickle slice&#8230;</p>
