Four Gift Ideas for the Geek Who Has Everything

I found four pretty cool holiday gift ideas ranging in price from $50 to $900 and wanted to share. These aren’t your run-of-the-mill, seen-1,000-times gifts - these are interesting gifts that I’ve either bought (don’t tell my wife), received, or wanted to buy at some point!

1) The “Naef Gloggomobil” - a “build your own” music box! You move the pegs wherever you want to make whatever tune you wish. Hand crafted in Switzerland.

2) A custom handprint/thumbprint/refrigerator-art jewelry piece from the folks at MagicDogStudio.com

3) A delivery of beautiful Hawaiian flowers. A side note: their web site does not do the flowers received justice. The floral arrangements are stunning and, if you have a friend, family member, client who has ever been to Hawaii, this is sure to make a lasting impression.

4) If you’re just absolutely stuck and can’t think of what to buy, how about a gift certificate to a donation project of the recipient’s choice? Google sent many advertisers last year a $100 DonorsChoose.org gift certificate and I thought it was just brilliant. I elected to donate my $100 to a Texas school’s jazz program and they used the money to help buy a new amplifier for their jazz combo. Made me feel all warm and fuzzy :)

Have a wonderful holiday season!
