Hide And Seek Festival
Culture Buzz London hosts the "celebration of social games," where digital and real-life play come together to result in what some might consider performance art, while others might call simply having fun (in an especially nerdy way). If you missed Come Out And Play, now's your best chance to make up for all those beautiful sunny afternoons you spent holed up in the basement playing Oregon Trail.

Amanda Lorber
TV Buzz The (generally loved) star of MTV's high school paper reality show fires back at a Columbia University reporter with a very eloquent letter. Wow, so this is what it's like to be a Good Communicator. If you're like me, you probably haven't crushed out on a girl on a reality show since that one with Lisa Loeb got canceled.

Death Note
Movie Buzz A live action movie based on the Japanese manga (graphic novel) hits selected American theaters to the joy of all goth-y introverts within an 60-mile radius of any art house theater. Allegedly having served as the inspiration for real-life murders, Death Note looks about as inviting as watching Hello Kitty get euthanized.

The Clone Wars
Movie Buzz The animated new Star Wars movie comes out August 15th, but the poster and trailer have been released this week. The 3D animation looks kind of blocky, but at least we won't have to put up with any bad acting.

IntelligentPeople.com
Culture Buzz A dating site strictly for "smart" people makes you take an IQ test before being able to participate. If you're sick of dating all those hot dumb people you find on sites like Nerve and eHarmony, here's a dating site for you. Especially if you're one of those weirdos that actually likes taking standardized tests.

Nerdy Wedding Rings
Tech Buzz Cat 5 ethernet rings are $175 and fit together perfectly for nerding, happily ever after. A reminder that no matter what, the rough times during your marriage won't be anything a little software upgrade or patch won't fix. For us cynics, it's also a reminder that in relationships, it's easy to get pwned.

ROFLcon
Tech Buzz The first official convention celebrating Internet memes will take place at Harvard University, where hundreds of web nerds will actually hear each other LOL. Buzzfeed won't be in attendance, but we can only hope there's a party DJ on hand to awkwardly beckon Tron Guy to the dance floor.

You Have To Burn The Rope
Tech Buzz The Flash game is causing joyous mayhem among bloggers, reminding gamers that simplicity can be blissful, too. You must play through to get to the song that plays during the end credits. Trust us, it's worth it (and we're pretty sure you'll be able to beat the boss).

RIP Gary Gygax
Culture Buzz Gary Gygax, inventor of Dungeons and Dragons, has died. Gary, we hardly knew ye. No, really, we had no idea who you were until you died. Nerds everywhere are mourning the loss and wistfully reminiscing over the precious hours they spent in D&D fantasyland instead of actually having to connect with real people.

Stewart vs. Conan vs. Colbert
TV Buzz A fake feud between the three TV personalities over who "made Mike Huckabee" reaches its [supposed] end. Oh man, it's like our dream three-way. In case you missed it, here's a bunch of video clips.

Crushing on Michael Cera
Movie Buzz Who ever thought the awkward, adenoidal kid who played George Michael Bluth on Arrested Development would turn into a sex symbol? Amazingly enough, Michael Cera's roles in the hit films Juno and Superbad have made him an object of adoration with a certain type of woman. Dudes everywhere are hoping the Michael Cera backlash sets in soon.
