My personal definition.
1. Geek doesn't interact well socially.
2. Geek has too much knowledge of a field - because they spend their time learning instead of socialising.
3. Geek does not care about fashion or looking good.
I think I'd modify those slightly because:
1) Geeks interact fine with other geeks.
2) It's knowledge of a field the majority finds unappealing - knowing a lot about Star Trek and dressing as Captain Kirk is geeky; knowing a lot about football and dressing as David Beckham isn't.
3) Yeah, you're probably right on that one.
