Okay Geek Farm
Okay Geek is a blog that celebrates everything to do with geek culture, technology and musings found all over the web.
Say Hello to Okay Geek
Previously known as “T3ch H3lp”, Okay Geek is a re-thought technology blog which strives to bring geeky original content for people who have a passion for tech. We have built Okay Geek from the ground up using Squarespace and our own custom tools. We want Okay Geek to be a fast, well designed and easy to use website and we believe we have done that very well.
Everyday, we spend time hand-crafting our articles which live up to the unwritten standards of the internet, but we also make sure creativity and ideas thinking are our main priorities. By all means, we’re not a team of “seasoned journalists”, we’re just a bunch of youngsters who believe that there is more than one way of looking at todays tech industry. We represent the current generation, and we believe our opinions in our content reflect that.
Only the best for our Editors
What makes Okay Geek so great? Well, it all started out as a bundle of frustration with finding a place to start out, and a home for our content. We thought about Wordpress (which is the most widely adopted blogging platform) but we wanted to stand out, and make a splash in the blogosphere - so there could only be one solution, Squarespace.
We are using Squarespace because it is stable, powerful, and it allows us to express ourselves without the limits of “old-school” blogging software. We are trying to make the best content we know how to make every day.

Inside Okay Geek
Okay Geek is a new breed of technology blogs. Here, we try to take all the news, and only put the best on our front page. We skip all the stuff that all the other blogs put up to “fill space” and we make sure that we only blog about stuff that is relevant to what you like, according to how you react to our articles.
We designed Okay Geek to look and feel like a web 2.0 experience because most of the other blogs don’t work like that, even though they are about technology. We put countless hours (that turn into days) into making the site look amazing, feel snappy and push out new features almost monthly.
History
Okay Geek was started by Brandon Davenport in 2007 and has been going strong with a growing audience of 500,000 + people. Originally, Okay Geek started as a series of videos or a “Vlog” which took video tutorials and reviews to a whole new level.
As Okay Geek continued to grow, Brandon needed to find a home for all the content, which was varying from videos. He started to be interested in the news industry and reviewing products, so naturally he formed a blog, what Okay Geek is today.
Okay Geek continues to become stronger with the positive reception received from the community, it has grown to become a trusted source for Tech news and information. the Okay Geek blog receives about 5 - 7 articles every day by our editors, who make sure that Okay Geek is priority number two. Life is priority one.
