I thought I’d give myself something interesting to post while at SDCC. Granted, geek tattoos aren’t a new concept, I thought it’d be a fun way to get to know some of my fellow congoers. Other than cosplaying, wearing shirts or gear, sporting tattoos of your favorites is a great way to show your dedication. Unfortunately, doing anything productive while in costume in a con is almost impossible, so I didn’t get too many people, and alas… I didn’t get any names either.

PostSecret is an ongoing project in which anonymous secrets are mailed in and the collaborator Frank Warren posts them on his site, with new secrets every Sunday. It started as a small art project in 2004 but has since grown incredibly famous with books published, traveling exhibits, and even appearing in an All American Rejects music video.

I have to say, I’ve followed ever since the site launched in 2005 and I’m addicted. I’ve sent one in, but it never showed up. There’s usually just morbid and dark secrets although recently have been more lighthearted and funny ones. This is one of the few geek-related ones I’ve found.

Of course it’s common to see celebrities promoting and advertising a product, but it’s rare that you see them promote video games… and even more rare that it’s females! I was pleasantly surprised to see one of my favorite celebs, Liv Tyler, testing her brain age on Brain Age 2 while I was watching TV. American Idol winner country sweetheart Carrie Underwood does another ad lounging on her tour bus and playing with her Nintendog. And Ugly Betty star America Ferrara joins in on the fun as well.
