The geeks are back. I’ve spent most of the day in my room, typing up my thesis, checking email from time to time. My wrist hurts a bit, but it’s quite fun. Anyway, because of this, it wasn’t until after dinner that I noticed tents had appeared outside brandies. That can only mean one thing: the LAN partiers have returned. I went in, but didn’t stay too long, for I had had an idea. Given that nerds and geeks are often fans too (Jenkins, 2002) this will be a perfect chance to do some actual field research, so I plan to type up a quick note of introduction and go back there later. Should be awesome. Plus, I’ll get to ogle their computers!
