''It's Geek 2 Me'' is a tech cartoon about people and their off-center relationships with computers, the Internet, social networks, smart phones, mp3 players, e-book readers and other technologies, created by Pittsburgh-based Indian-American cartoonist, Francis Cleetus. He got the idea for the cartoon when a frantic intern rushed into his office and asked where the any key was on his computer keyboard. ''It's Geek 2 Me'' continued to evolve while Francis worked as a staff reporter for Dataquest magazine, and later as an advertising creative director on various tech brands. Francis chose his hometown of Pittsburgh for the setting because it has a large tech community, over 1,600 tech-based companies and the Carnegie Institute of Technology is ranked among the top five engineering colleges in the country by the U.S. News & World Report. The first compilation of ''It's Geek 2 Me'' tech toons was self-published by the author in 2012 as a paperback titled ''Wish Your Mouth Had A Backspace Key'' in the United States through Amazon.com. In 2013, a new compilation titled ''It's Geek 2 Me - Total Timepass Tech Toons'' was published by Hachette India for the Indian subcontinent. == Author == (詳細はFrancis Cleetus is a Pittsburgh-based creative director, mural painter and tech cartoonist.
