It&#8217;s be a really really long year, so hopefully this brings a bit more cheer to kick off your holiday shopping season, which will likely be mostly online this year. It&#8217;s time to get moving and buy some stuff for the people you love (or hate?). I use this list as a starting point for my own gift-giving to (geeky) friends and family. Most of the guides listed below fall into geeky\/techie categories, but a few are also useful for general gift-giving as well. Like usual, I&#8217;ll try to keep this post up to date as I encounter additional gift lists and guides around the intertubes. If you know of any I may have misted, leave a comment and I\u2019ll get it added. Happy (geeky) gifting!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/21550115\/holiday-gift-guide-tech-gadget-ideas\">The Verge Holiday Gift Guide
