If you are a geek who lives in Los Angeles and you have April 21st and 22nd free, you might want to check out the 17th annual Los Angeles Times Festival of Books at USC. I have gone in years past when the festival was at UCLA, but I don't remember the festival being as geek friendly as it is this year. Makes me wish I wasn't going to be out of town that weekend. Check it out:
