Stempunk is, well, building steam. It's been a slow drive to be sure, but while stuff in the steampunk genre was hard to come by a few years ago, now you can find it in virtually every entertainment medium and hobby.

Steampunk elements have appeared in countless electronic games, many roleplaying games, and several war games. There are steampunk comics galore, novels in the genre, and even TV series (Brisco County Jr., The Secret Adventures of Jules Verne). There have been many steampunk cartoon shorts (the Amazing Screw On Head), and there are elements of steampunk in syndicated cartoons and some movies like (Hellboy comes to mind).

People make steampunk costumes for conventions, mod their cellphones and laptops to look steampunk, make steampunk stuff from legos, sell steampunk designer
