> above-average internet usage
I doubt that internet usage is any longer a measure of how "nerdy" a person is.
There are teenagers, especially girls, constantly using internet-based services from their cell phones to communicate with other people for most of the time they spend awake [1,2,3]. Would you call them "nerdy"? I doubt.
