The PC Mod That Is Sexier Than A Mac
We all know that two of Apple's most famous catch phrases are "sexy" and "insanely great," which they pretty much attach to all their products. In some ways those words are true as well, and with all the sales they are raking in, it's hard to say the contrary.
However, there are of course modders ...
Craft Inspiration: Brain Specimen in a Jar
If you are on the Internet all day like I am, you are probably noticing the same trend as me. Needlefelt is everywhere. I know what you're probably thinking... Needlefelt?

How To: Build A Working Urinal Out Of SNES Games
Man, I never thought I'd see the day when I'd wish I could pee standing up. This is totally not fair. Not only is this the geekiest urinal I've ever seen (oh wait, I've only seen a few of those in my life), it’s also the best use I've seen so far for all those old boring as hell sports SNES games.

Lego: A Graceful Flying Pegasus Automaton
According to Greek mythology, Pegasus is the horse with wings that flew out of Medusa's head. Whenever I've seen Pegasus in books or movies, I've always thought she was such a beautiful animal. We have seen a lot of Lego builds on Bit Rebels, but never before today would I have ever thought I'd see ...

The World Is Officially Obsessed With Facebook [Video]
There seems to be no end to the obsession of Facebook, and the many ways it keeps us glued to the screen are increasing. I don't find it odd that we're so into it, just that we don't adopt other services as fast (except Twitter that is). But then again, the people behind Facebook seem to have a deep ...
World’s Largest Working NES Controller
At first, I titled this article "World's Largest NES Controller." I had to go back and add the word "Working" because unlike many of the huge goofy NES controllers we've seen in the past, this one is actually functional! It's so big that the only way to control it is to stand on the buttons. Now the ...
Brand Wars: When Everything Is About Star Wars
The beauty of a competitive business climate is that consumers and customers get lower prices. However, when everything is about the best gadget, product or service, it's not always easy to decide what brand to choose. You have to compare your requirements to the product itself to know exactly what ...
Illustration: Pulp Fiction & The Simpsons Mashup
When I was growing up, there were two movies that I saw when I was too young. I was attending University when these movies came out, so I wasn't a baby, but I had just moved out of my mother's house, and I was alone in my dorm room when I saw them. I've been forever scarred. Those two movies were Re ...

Every Company Microsoft Ever Invested In [Infographic]
We all know that Microsoft was taken to court for possibly monopolizing several aspects of the software market by acquiring company after company that they were supposedly competing with on the market.

Twitter Actually Increases Your Overall Grades [Infographic]
There is a common perception in the world that Twitter, Facebook and every other social networking site is bad for us. The main argument is that when we first try it out, we will probably get sucked in, and a lot of our more important tasks during our day suffer from it. The addiction level of socia ...
Photography: Rare Photos Of The Great Depression
In keeping with my plan to present one post with extraordinary photography to you each day, today I bring you some very rare photographs taken during The Great Depression. The reason these are rare is because, as you probably know, most of the photos taken during that time were in black and white. T ...
Edible City: Shanghai China Recreated In Bakery Sweets
A lot of times people ask me if I have a personal blog. I always just direct them here. Bit Rebels is not a personal blog per se; however, to me it kind of is. The reason I say that is because for both Misty and me, we chronicle our lives here. For example, if I'm hungry, I write about food. If I'm ...
Angry Birds: This Time As Real Life Game Play
Some consider Angry Birds to be one of the most addicting games of all time, and I am ready to agree. However, for me it's not just that I like playing it, but that I actually have to make sure I clear each level with a three star rating. And believe me, it's easier said than done! You have to find ...
8 Tips For Feeling Awake Without Caffeine
After reading Richard's article about latte art this morning, I started thinking about lattes. What exactly is a latte? I know I've never had a latte. I've always thought it was just a fancy cup of coffee. Now that I've looked into it further, I see that's not entirely true. Although a latte has cof ...
