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 ...

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 ...
Beer Paintings: Extraordinary Art Painted With Beer
Well damn, who needs paint when you have beer, right? I'm a big fan of beer. Most ladies I know drink wine instead of beer, and I suppose that is a bit more sophisticated and ladylike. However, even after all I've learned about wine from Twitter's wine expert, @RickBakas, I still prefer beer. And, o ...

If Star Wars Characters Had Access To Google [Infographic]

Famous Photographs From History Recreated In Lego
Two of our favorite topics to write about on Bit Rebels are Star Wars and Lego. We are inspired by both of them, and they never get old. That is probably because there are always creative new things out there to share with you. It just never ends, and that is of course thanks to all the Star Wars an ...

If Computer Problems Were Real… [Video]
Lately I have had the unfortunate luck to have two of my screens just completely stop working. I will have them replaced; however, it's the adapting to working on only a couple of screens that has set me a little on edge. When you are so used to a workflow that involves four screens, and when sudden ...
Oreo Crumb Case: Addiction Storage Pouch
I think everyone who has ever tasted an Oreo cookie knows that once you start eating them, the whole package is going to run out really fast. I am not talking about just having one or two cookies here. I am talking about us not being able to stop eating until the whole package is empty. The funny th ...

Cats That Play Scrabble [10 Pics]
When I first tuned into the Internet cat craze a few years ago, I thought for sure it would be just a fad.

Wear Your Lunch: A Trendy & Tasty Jewelry Collection
Haven't you always wanted to wear a hot pink chicken wing necklace, a bacon bracelet or a whipped cream and cherry ring? Me neither, but apparently some people do. The chicken wings are hand-battered, so no two are the same. The bacon necklace is hand sculpted and painted. The banana necklace is als ...
Mean Green Machine: A Freaky Xbox 360 Console Mod
There are game console modders, and then there is Kier. His motto is, "Why keep it standard if you can modify it?" This particular mod looks like the Hulk, and it's just as intimidating to me. What Kier is able to do with a couple of white Xbox 360s is truly mind-blowing. The clear acrylic panel on ...
