** Her book got this as well, in part because of the advertising line "Geeks, meet your new queen," which spawned a counter hashtag, #[=NotMyQueen=] on Twitter from people who considered her to be having a case of SmallNameBigEgo, from people who'd never heard of her or people who had other problems with her. However, she does state in the book that she's never called herself "Queen of the Geeks"; it's just a title other people often bestow on her.
