Geek Code - Decoding A Geek Code

Decoding A Geek Code

Originally, geek codes were designed as a quick reference about a geek's preferences for use in .sig files on Usenet and email. Pete Williams wrote a program called ungeek.pl that automatically decoded a geek code into the English definitions. In late 1998, Bradley M. Kuhn made Williams' program available as a web service. Joe Reiss made a similar page available in October 1999.

Famous quotes containing the word code:

    “Faultless honesty is a sine qua non of business life. Not alone the honesty according to the moral code and the Bible. When I speak of honesty I refer to the small, hidden, evasive meannesses of our natures. I speak of the honesty of ourselves to ourselves.”
    —Alice Foote MacDougall (1867–1945)
