Attention, People of Earth!

Welcome to Nerds of a Feather (or “www.nerds-feather.com” for short), a new blog dedicated to any and all things nerdy!  Early emphasis will be on core elements of modern nerditry: tv/film, video games, science/technology, comic books/graphic fiction, literature and the various nerdy genre fictions.  Hopefully, somewhere along the road we’ll also start covering more “mainstream” topics that nevertheless lend themselves to NERD RAGE, like cars, sports, politics, etc.  We’ll see. 

Content will vary from standard bloggy coverage of things in the news to actual reviews of books/shows/films/games/etc.  I won’t lie—there’s no way this site can be comprehensive, especially in its early stages.  But I’ll do my best to make sure there’s a steady stream of reliable, thought-provoking content.  On that front, user submissions are allowed and encouraged.  I’m still working out the technicalities of the submission process, but will update you soon with the details.  Suffice to say, I’d love to read and publish your thoughts, musings and strong opinions, provided the subject matter and approach are in line with the site's goals (loosely defined).  

Comments are also encouraged; conversations are always better than monologues, and opinions are meant to be debated.  Just make sure any haymakers land above the belt, okay? 

That’s about all for now—real actual stuff coming soon!
