If you’ve ever seen the TV show ‘The Big Bang Theory’ you may well have noticed that the characters, who we’re meant to believe are more interested in quantum theory than fashion, can be found wearing some pretty cool t-shirts. I guess that someone else noticed this and decided to hunt down where the tees can be bought online, and put together a site all about it. Some of the links aren’t exactly right, I doubt that CBS’s wardrobe department are buying their tees from Cafepress, but its still a pretty good resource.

This link is damn old, ancient in internet terms, but its new to me, so… its new!

Internet Duct Tape, whose posts are more accustomed to tech than tees, wrote a list back in December 2006 (soooo old!) of, you guessed it, 107 t-shirts for geeks that do not suck. Personally, I think a few of them do suck, but there’s still a few geeky gems in there that I think are still on sale after all this time.

Tag cloud’s always look a bit messy to me, which is why you won’t be finding one on HYA despite me slowly working my way through the archives adding tags to each post (which over more than 1000 posts is quite a lot of work). But I do think that its a pretty neat idea when it comes to t-shirt design. It would be nice if it were possible to input your web address and then have a robot generate personalised tags for your site automatically and put them onto the tee, but I guess that if you really wanted a personalised version then you could always just make up a tee of your own on one of the many custom t-shirt sites, of which ShirtCity is one.Costiness=€14.95 Link

I don’t really know how it happened, but all of a sudden I seem to be rather impressed by ThinkGeek, I know that the tees aren’t necessarily the cutting edge of fashion, but I like to see people trying something different, and there melding of t-shirts and technology is producing some really interesting results.

Now, strictly speaking, the game being played on the front of this t-shirt isn’t pong, it is a ‘retro table tennis’ game, I just happen to have misspelled ‘retro table tennis’ in my post title and can’t be bothered to change it to something less copyright infringing. For those wondering, the animated decal on the front can apparently be removed very easily (as can its battery pack) for when you need to wash the shirt after your sweaty late-night gaming sessions.

You will find no pie/pi references here, no matter how easy it would be for a pun-lover such as to be impaled upon the sword of lame writing (which, lets be frank, happens around here quite a lot), I shall resist!

The cool thing about this hoodie is that the pi symbol itself is actually made up of lots of tiny numbers, and apparently the numbers follow the sequence of pi, which in your head is a pretty logical thing to do if you were brainstorming pi related design ideas, but its still nice to see someone actually make it.
