Flipboard – A Social Magazine for Your iPad
When I was in Chicago, I had the opportunity of course to visit the Apple store and play with the iPad. I totally wanted to get one, but due to budget constraints, I had to just play with it in the store. I was; however, able to convince two of my friends to buy one on the spot. They are both not ...
LEGO Goes Badass: The Plastic Figurines Now Have Tattoos!
LEGO certainly seems to have no boundaries when it comes to creativity and the number of people who still find it to be one of the best pastimes they could have. It just so happens that LEGO is producing way more cool stuff that we never get to check out since they find it not to be broad enough fo ...
The Magic Cheezburger 8-Ball Has All The Answers!
This is so friggin ridiculous that I have to have one. Remember the magic 8-balls our parents used to play with in the old days? They are black and you shake them up and then read the answers. Actually, I think they still sell them, I saw some at the toy store a few weeks ago.
This is an 8-bal ...
Sketch And Edit Photos On The Go!
I like to travel, and when I do, I don't bring my work computer with me. I just use the tools that are available online. We at Bit Rebels like sharing tools that we discover that will allow our readers to be productive anywhere they may be.
I found a site that does the job of editing photos and ...
Homemade Space Helmet Breaks All Boundaries!
We're in the middle of the space age, and we break boundaries every day. We travel farther into space and glance ever deeper at the planets and stars out there only to understand where we came from, and where we are headed. Some people stay positive that we'll one day travel to those distant world ...
Clocks Created From Vinyl Records – Retro Meets Recycling
Vinyl records are just a tad before my time. I had a few of them when I was very young, but for most of my childhood, it was the cassette era. I have a lot of friends; however, that collect old records. Apparently they can be very sentimental and bring back wonderful memories.
My favorite part ...
How To: Draw Real Time 3D Images On A 2D Surface
It has long been the limit of the Wacom board, for example, to draw 3D images (in real time) on a 2D surface. Usually the "z" axis has been lacking in its presence and you have had to do that on a computer where you have this whole mouse/interface thing going on. Sure, there are plenty of 3D softw ...
Edible Greeting Cards – A Tasty Way To Send Your Love
We've all gotten the scratch-n-sniff cards, the musical cards, and even the huge oversized cards, but I betcha you've never gotten an edible card before!
Move over Hallmark, American Greetings recently released a new kind of card - it's flavored! Each card has a dissolvable taste strip that matc ...
The High Rises Of Tomorrow Come In Prefabricated Blocks!
They get higher and higher each day and architects have stumbled over new problems that might make building them even higher almost impossible. It's not really the structure of the building that limits the height. It's also not the forces of nature that keep architects from constructing and drawin ...
How To: Create Your Own Unique Digital Handwriting Font
I grew up handwriting letters, but now that we do everything on the computer, I find myself forgetting how to write in cursive. I type even the simplest notes and print them to avoid showcasing my embarrassing penmanship.
Is the art of handwriting gone forever? I've written about this before ...

Well, you're in luck cause I am going to visually treat you with something that might capture your interest. Some people just like that hardware keyboard in fr ...
Dissected Frogs Never Looked So Cute!
When I was in high school, biology was my least favorite subject. I always thought dissecting animals was completely gross, and I felt so bad for them. Somehow their lives ended just so they could lay helpless in that cold metal tray awaiting to be disrespectfully cut up and studied.
Maybe that ...
Next Gen Printers: Tiny As Can Be!
Everyone is looking to be the "next generation" of this or that. There is no doubt that's a good thing because every consumer wants their new gadget to be as small as can be. Why? Beats me really. Maybe it's because we wanna carry it around and use it rather then having to leave the gadget at ho ...
A Digitally Enhanced, High-Def, Interactive Pool Table!
Oh, now this is cool. If I had an extra $200,000 to blow, I would probably try to do something a little more noble with it than buy a tricked out pool table, but hey, I can still appreciate it from afar.
This is wild and crazy stuff. This Obscura Digital Cuelight Interactive Pool Table is featu ...
The World’s First Curved Cell Phone: LG Exo Smartphone
It's been said many times before, but it's worth mentioning again. The cell phones of today truly don't have any style to them. They are just protective shells with a lot of advanced technology inside of them. It's like the manufacturers are just trying to cram as much goo in there to satisfy us ...
