Designers + Geeks is a popular monthly event that brings together designers, developers, artists, and geeks of all types. Born in San Francisco, we're extending to New York to continue the fun.

Intelligence is undeniably attractive.  Although sometimes we tend to adore the more obvious choice in movies and magazines, we’ve secretly loved the smarty-pants for years. This is for nerds who understand that it's not the "bad" in bad boys that women crave, but rather the sense of "aliveness" that comes from thinking. This group is for nerderttes that understand and accept these men as they are. As bright, sophisticated women, mental stimulation is just as important as physical in our relatio …
