Star Wars Cupcakes With Handmade Edible Lego Minifigs
We've written tons of articles on Bit Rebels about Star Wars and cupcakes, but we haven't written any about actual Star Wars cupcakes, so when I saw this, I had to stop what I was doing to write about it. Geeks and cupcakes seem to go hand in hand, and I'm not sure why that is. It's probably because ...

Instagram vs. The New York Times [Infographic]
We often talk about how fast technology is evolving, and how that affects our daily lives in almost every way. However, I never thought about it all from this perspective before today. We all know that Mark Zuckerberg thought the value of Instagram was worth $1 billion dollars, and the decision that ...
How To: Play Hooky From Work Without Getting Caught
Have you ever called into work and said you were sick when you really weren't just so you could take the day off? C'mon, it's okay, you can admit it, you're among friends here. Everyone has done it, right? Well, actually only about 30% of Americans have. That's interesting because almost everyone I ...
Retro Brilliance: The Cassette Tape Coffee Table
Retro design and coffee tables seem to go together well. It's a great way for people to add a little blast from the past to their homes. We've featured tons of creative coffee tables on Bit Rebels before, and after seeing the VHS coffee table, you could probably guess that the creation of this casse ...

2012 Social Media News Broken Down By Month [Infographic]
The state of social media is constantly changing, and changing fast. If you even sleep too long one night, you could miss the next big announcement, upgrade or acquisition. It's very similar to technology as a whole. It's fast paced, and if you don't go out of your way to stay updated by devoting ti ...
Stone Footprints: The Art Of Making Footprints From Rocks
We've written this so many times before... Creativity is all around us, all the time. Sometimes the most inspiring art we find is made from old books, garbage, used up office supplies or anything else unexpected that we might find around us on a daily basis. You don't have to have a lot of money, an ...

Cyberpunks From The ’90s: An Unusual Kind Of Retro [Chart]
We write about a lot of retro gadgets and art on Bit Rebels. I think the reason why, besides the fact that it's fun to look back in time and remember what it was like, is because technology is advancing so fast that what is here today could easily be considered retro tomorrow.
If you were stuck i ...
Doggie Pedicures: Transform Your Pup Into A Beauty Queen
What I'd like to share with you in this article is something that definitely ranks high on my canine weird-shit-o-meter. Some people do bizarre things with and to their dogs. I'm definitely a dog person, and when I come across these things on the Internet, I just ask myself, "Why?" I'm not here to j ...
The Great Britain Olympic Team Recreated In Lego Minifigs
I've heard people say before that the pinnacle of success would be to have a Barbie doll or action figure created to look like you and sold in stores around the world. I can see how that might be the ultimate ego trip for some people, but personally, that's not geek enough for me. I think it would b ...
Survive In Style: Beautifully Packaged End-Of-The-World Kit
With some people running from zombies, which are apparently on their way to eat our brains, and others preparing for the end of the world according to the Mayan calendar, the future doesn't look so bright for our world. Maybe these things aren't really going to happen, but it does seem like sometime ...
Find Out What Your Favorite Video Games Smell Like
As we all sit and wait for the smell-o-vision technology to become a reality, the question still remains, what exactly would our favorite video games smell like? In case you don't know what smell-o-vision is, it's a layer of technology that will supposedly add a new dimension to gaming while assigni ...
Open Wide… The iPad That Dispenses Beer
We've always heard people say that you can do just about anything with an iPad, but dispense beer? That's one I hadn't thought of before. The best part is, all you have to do to make this work is attach a spigot to the front. I know beer lovers around the world who have seen this video are hoping so ...

Happy 35th Anniversary Star Wars [2 Timeline Infographics]
It's hard to believe that tomorrow, on May 25th, it will be exactly 35 years since Star Wars was first introduced to the world. I wonder if anyone back then had any idea about how that movie and all the ones that followed in the series would affect the world and multiple generations like it did. It' ...
Creative & Colorful Nail Art Inspired By The Avengers
It's definitely a current trend that when a movie does well at the box office, artists create manicures and eye makeup to complement the film. I didn't see that type of art very much before Pinterest launched, so either I learned about it from Pinterest or people just started creating that stuff spe ...
The World’s Most Determined Slinky
Sometimes when you hit up all your favorite websites in the morning, you find yourself in a different kind of mood. You might be in the mood to read something a little less intense and a little more silly. If you are in one of those moods today, I've got just the thing for you. This slinky is my new ...
