Top 10 Worst Places To Lose Your Smartphone
I've noticed that there are pretty much two categories of people. There are those who are always on time for everything, they never lose anything and they somehow seem completely organized all the time. My mother falls into this category. Then there is another group of people who are usually running ...
How To: Recycle & Reuse Items For Your Garden
We are big fans of reusing and recycling at Bit Rebels. The whole concept of giving a second life to something that might have before been considered trash is becoming more and more popular. Several years ago when well known artists started making things with trash, their creations usually looked ki ...
Photography: Intimate Drive-By Pictures Of People & Their Cars
I write about photography a lot. I love it! Lately though, I've really been getting into a specific kind of photography. I don't know what it's called, but it's where the pictures are spontaneous and unplanned. I like pictures of people who didn't expect to be photographed on that day, and as a resu ...
Photography: Squished Up Faces On The Tokyo Train
We have a train here in Atlanta called Marta. Marta stands for Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority. It's awesome because for about two bucks, you can get anywhere in the city without having to drive in traffic. Sometimes when I get on Marta it's crowded, like during rush hour, but for the m ...

Deadly Combination Of Smartphones & Driving [Infographic]
Do you get distracted by your phone when you are driving? It's been in the media a lot over the past year, and apparently, a lot of people do. It's not just smartphones that distract us from driving. Whether it's a cup of coffee, a burger, or even an excited dog in the passenger seat, it's easy to g ...
Men vs. Women: Online Shopping Trends May Surprise You
We all know the popular stereotype that women shop way more than men. Personally, that is something I can't relate to since I really, really don't like shopping; however, almost all my girl friends love it, so there must be some appeal there.
As it turns out, times are changing, and so are the tr ...

Spectacular New York City Photography [10 Pics]
I love living in a big city. I grew up in a small town, and I always knew from the time I was a little girl that I was destined for a big city. The moment I was old enough to relocate, I did. To me, one of the most beautiful aspects of living in a large metropolitan area is standing right in the mid ...
Science: A Shocking Discovery About Snails
This has been wigging me out since I read about it a few days ago, so maybe if I write about it, it won't seem so strange. Scientists have just discovered that some snails can survive being eaten by birds. In other words, the birds eat them, and then when they come out in the bird's poop, they just ...

One Day On Earth: Every Country On The Same Day [Video]
We are all just specks of dust in the universe. Does that make our lives insignificant? I believe it doesn't because even though we are just an itty-bitty piece of the puzzle, we are all connected. Our lives touch the lives of everyone else on this planet, and for that reason, we are very significan ...
The Man Who Counts & Catalogs Every Sneeze
I am an expert sneezer. I know what you are thinking, but I really am. If you were to ask anyone I grew up with or anyone in my family, they would confirm it. I am allergic to trees (along with about ten other things). I spend a lot of time in nature, so as a result, I sneeze a lot. When I was young ...

Yay For Moms! Mommy Facts You Never Knew [Infographic]
My dear friend @gupshupblog always jokes that I'm his Twitter Mama. I'd like to think that I'm waaaaaay to young to actually be his mother (of course, right? lol) but his little nickname for me always makes me smile. Yesterday he sent me a DM on Twitter with the infographic below.

Since I've been a full-time entrepreneur since 2000, I love writing about it. Currently I own an Apple certified consulting firm in Atlanta, and I'm also a writer here at Bit Rebels and Ink Rebels. Have you ever wondered where the concept of being an entrepreneur started? Entrepreneurship probably s ...
Woman Discovers How To Live Happily Without Any Money
What does it mean to be rich? Does it mean that a person has a lot of money? Does it mean having a big house with a lot of things in it? I know people who have an abundance of money, but their health isn't good. To me, that's not rich. There are also people who are completely broke but in perfect he ...
Photography: Random People Texting On The Streets
Do you ever walk down the sidewalk only to stop along the way, which annoys everyone around you? If you live in a touristy city, you know exactly what I mean. Tourists suddenly stop all the time to snap pictures everywhere they go. If you do that crap in New York City, people won't be politely annoy ...
Zombie Bikinis: Badass Beachwear To Scare Off The Deadheads
I don't think it has escaped anyone that summer is very much upon us at this very moment. It's probably a hundred degrees here in the office, and I am struggling to keep cool since I insist on drinking lava hot tea with a splash of milk in it. Yeah I know, it doesn't really make any sense does it? H ...
