a Geek is someone obsessed with certain topics/hobbies/trends and is always up to date and can't miss the tiniest details, and a geek is more sociable than a Nerd. (otaku people for example).
a Nerd, on the other hand, is similar but isn't obsessed with things. a Nerd knows too much about certain things but isn't necessarily obsessed with those things.
