If the music makes you daydream and stare down, it's shoe gaze music.
Nerd rock sounds like someone's idea of a slam when they first see bands like Devo. Not sure what it really is.
Time for all of you to head over to Beyond My DAW!

Wikipedia is your friend:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shoegazing
Swervedriver always felt too heavy for me to be shoegazing, I saw them support someone (I can't remember who as I went to see Swervedriver) and left me with tinnitus for days. Slowdive for me was the epitome of shoegazing.

Two things is where you have one more thing than one and one less thing than three.

I always Ask Jeeves to tell me if Yahoo suggests I use Google to find something.

Shoe Gaze already described but perhaps not well enough. It's essentially stoner music. Usually mind freaker stuff but mellow enough to just make you look at your shoes.
Nerd rock is likely referring to bands like Weezer. The "uncool" hip of the late 90's/early 2000's that were kind of post grunge/pre full on "hipster" movement.
Now "Dork Metal"... who the frack knows? The freak that invented that is a sick and twisted individual.

BTW... I believe early Queens of the Stone Age (due to their long, meandering but interesting musical interludes) and their contemporaries is considered Shoe Gaze...
But it's not necessarily limited to stoner rock. Just not that harsh ecstasy/designer drug type electronica.
More organic drugs and sounds. Mostly pot and shrooms.
I could be wrong on that.
