My Presentation.
I think my presentation went well, I was a little nervous, but I included all the information that I had intended to. However, It was a little less formal than others, and since I had many pictures and attempted and humerus approach, I'm not sure I included enough information. I know my blogger is a nerd and he is proud to be one, but I have to admit, I feel a little funny calling him a "nerd." It seems derogatory and a little mean, even though I consider myself an undercover nerd and it's easy to relate, I still don't know how to make it sound positive and unoffensive. Any suggestions?

I consider myself a nerd, and it made sense to me. However, to avoid offending others, rather than calling somebody a nerd, you can say that they fit into the traditional stereotype of a nerd. That way, it sounds less like you are mocking the author. However, if he is a proud nerd, then you might be lessening his acceptance, or embracing the stereotype.
