Technology Vampire 

The term Technology Vampire comes from IRC and refers to someone who comes into a channel and begins to suck the life out of the channel by asking question after question after question. Once the Vampire has sucked the channel dry the Vampire disappears. Most often this kind of Vampire comes from Romania but have been know to come from elsewhere.
<Vampire> Hi, I want to make a web site, how do I do that?
<Regular> You need a web server with the proper extentions and then you code the pages.
<Vampire> How do I set up a server like that?
<Regular> Do you have Linux or a server version of windows?
<Vamipre> Whats linux?
<Regular> Do you know any web languages?
<Vamipre> I'm not sure what those are. What are some of them?
<Regular> What kind of web site do you want?
<Vamipre> I'm not real sure what I want.

technology troubadour 

A person who knows a lot about technology, the internet, computers, social media and websites but isn't a geek.

Someone who is not attached to a specific department in a company, but regularly works with Sales, Marketing, Management, Development and Customer Service departments to share information and ensure everyone is working toward common goals.
Customer complaints were not being considered in the new product release, so we hired a Technology Troubadour to help specify what updates were needed to the programmers.

I wanted to sell my homemade jewelry online, but I didn't know where to start. I met a Technology Troubadour that helped me start a blog, build a website and find fans on Facebook.

Technology Porn 

When individuals post videos of unboxing their new gadgets, usually laptops or other computers. It is done with utmost slowness to really see the gadget and all that comes with it.
I just watched someone unbox their new MacBook on YouTube...such technology porn.

technology pessimist

One who does not/can not see all the potential positive benefits of technology. These feelings are often derived from and can be attributed to a lifelong confusion towards complex systems and products. Members of this group almost certainly majored in a liberal arts subject (as opposed to engineering).
When I pulled out my Treo 660, Jaime ran away. I tried text-messaging her, but she never replied. What a technology pessimist! If only she knew what she was missing...

technology coma 

when you come home from work school etc. and surround yourself in the world of technology. includes things such as tv,payperview, texting, facebook, myspace, amazon, twitter, phone calls, xanga, stickam, etc.
Usually atleast 3-4 of these are being preformed at once.
john: hey what's up tina?
tina: oh you know facebook myspace twitter YouTube...
john: oh the basic technology coma?
tina: yeah pretty much.

Technology Cheese 

Similar to a grilled cheese, the first step is to toast two slices of bread, next microwave the two slices of bread with desired number of cheese slices until sufficiently melted.
Bro, I'm starving, I want a grilled cheese, but I don't want to do all that work.

Dude, just technology cheese instead.

YES!
