"Status symbols for the uber geek." That's our kind of status symbol.
I shrieked with joy last night when friend of CMP and Jimmies lead singer Ashley Albert turned us onto her new collaborative project with Phoebe Jonas, Survival of the Hippest. And by hippest we mean techiest, geekiest, and 2.0-iest, of course.

The shop is going to offer something new and cool every few months, starting with these personalized nameplate ID necklaces, keychains, bracelets and pins in the Social St@tus collection. They're made from your choice of sterling silver or blingalicious 14k, and can be personalized with any Twitter ID or hashtag of your choice. Am I speaking Greek? #sorry.

The sterling Twitter necklaces are fairly affordable at just $49.99, although you can add little diamonds, longer chains, or more letters for just a bit more if you want to go flashy.

If you've got a cool Twitter handle like @rocknrollmama does,  jump on it, stat. Or heck, pledge your allegiance to @aplusk or #spymaster. Do it now - I'd imagine this will be a very hot holiday gift this year.

Personally, I'm ordering one that says #fail. -Liz
