A Visual History Of Twitter [Infographic]
Twitter has certainly come a long way since that day in 2006 when it opened for the public to sign up. It's just mind boggling to see that Twitter has gone from a personal project to over 200 million users in a little over 5 years. New features are being released on a regular basis, and more users k ...
Photography: Squished Bugs Peeled From A Car Windshield
I've noticed there are two types of people in the world when it comes to bugs. There are some people who hate bugs, and they stomp, swat or squish them every chance they get. There are other people who don't believe in killing bugs since they are part of nature, and they simply aren't bothered by th ...

Then & Now: What A Difference 10 Years Makes [Humor]
This is so funny to me, and I was just thinking about it the other day. Technology changes so fast, and with it, so do our expectations. I clearly remember patiently waiting for dial-up Internet to connect, carrying around a cell phone that I only used for emergencies, and watching television when i ...
Undercap: The Stylish Underwear For Your Head
*Warning: This is stupid* The only thing I've ever written about that is stupider than this is How To: Get Jersey Shore Hair. I mean, really. I wonder where inventions like this originate, but even more importantly, who exactly are the people who come up with this stuff? I have no idea. However, fro ...
HTML For Babies: Give Your Toddler A Head Start
All we really have to know in life is that anything is possible. Whatever it is that you want to accomplish, there is a way. That doesn't mean there won't be a lot of work involved. Nothing comes for free in this world, and as long as you know that, it's just to have a go at your dreams. However say ...
Stunning Gears Of War Lego Rubber Band Rifle
I am not the one to play those first person gory shooters that keep coming out these days. I am more of an adventure kind of gamer, and I would definitely go for more open-ended gameplay like Eve Online, Minecraft and to some extent World of Warcraft. However, there are certainly a lot of people out ...
Unusual Hotels: The Underground Cozy Cave Hotel In Sweden
There are so many unusual and interesting hotels in the world, and I think it would be a lot of fun to take a trip around the world, visit all my social media friends, and stay in these wildly unique hotels. Sweden seems to be a place with a lot of these kind of places. I stumble across them often. ...
Blind People vs. American Paper Money
This is fascinating to me, and it's something I've always wondered about. Here in the United States, all of our paper money is exactly the same except for the printing on the paper. So, how would a person who is blind distinguish between, for example, a one dollar bill and a one hundred dollar bill? ...
Darth Vader’s Imperial March Played On Floppy Drives
The geek is strong with this one! I don't put a lot of videos in my Bit Rebels articles because I know you are busy, and you don't have time to sit there and watch a video unless it's really, really good. Well, this one is really, really good! It was just put on YouTube four days ago, and it's alrea ...
Anti-Geek Commercial: Break Free Of The Pixel
I think most of us are not exactly overjoyed when we are watching a movie and a commercial interrupts our intense experience. It is; however, a necessary nuance in order for us to even be able to see a movie without having to pay a price close to a what a movie ticket would be. It seems that commer ...
Ultra Realistic Paintings Will Make You Question What’s Real
After being on the Internet since probably its early beginnings, many of us have seen some really cool stuff shoot by on the screen from time to time. Of course, there's a lot of junk, but sometimes there are things that create a lasting memory. It doesn't happen too often, but when it does, it sure ...
Lightsaber Handrails: Tokyo Is The Place For Star Wars Fans
The integration of Star Wars technologies into the world has always been on the rise. We have seen gadget after gadget adapt some of the sounds, looks and similar features even though the features in the movies are probably way beyond what our technology is capable of. However, they are ever more pr ...

Twacked: When Good Twitter Accounts Go Bad [Infographic]
It's a common theme on Twitter to see someone's account get hacked and suddenly start tweeting a bunch of horse manure. It's also quite common to see tweets that warn us about things not to click on. It can be everything from DMs to tweets, but the tweets usually say the same thing, "If you get 'thi ...

Mobile Load Time vs. User Expectations [Infographic]
Yes, that is correct! We do not have a mobile site, and the reason for that is because we think we are too good for it. Nah, just kidding. We're working on getting one up that will allow for our readers to check out our geeky content through a more minimized format. We know that downloading our site ...
Toilet Paper Twitter Printer: Never Miss A Tweet Again
There is a great chance that you got to this article by clicking a Twitter retweet link, or you were referred to it at least through Twitter. There is nothing wrong in that at all. It only shows that you are one of the few who actually listens to (reads) what your followings or followers tweet. Even ...
