“My Very Nerdy Wishlist” contest winners

The holidays have come to an end, but we can’t finish out the season without announcing the winners of our “My Very Nerdy Wish List” Pinterest contest.

Drumroll, please

Our first winner is Mirlan Bayaman, who filled his wish list with bewitching treasures that would warm the heart of any nerd. Our favorite item may be the pocket microscope. Or maybe the self-lacing shoes. Who wouldn’t want those?

Our second winner is Eric Suydam, whose love for iOS proves undeniable with his repins of some of our very own programming guides. He also included one of our favorite Macbook decals. However, the best pin is the photo of Big Nerd Ranch alumni captioned, “All I want for Christmas is an HTML5 bootcamp.”
