Everyone who knows us here at Bit Rebels knows that we love to celebrate geeks, promote geeks and write about everything that has to do with being a geek. We often joke that someday geeks will inherit the earth, and if you're a geek, you know you are always welcome here. Gone are the days when geeks ...

How Google Affects Our Memory [Infographic]

I remember back towards the beginning of the year when Chris Pirillo and Danny Brown both wrote articles about how social media is, in a sense, making us lazy. They started a whole online conversation about it, and many other blogs weighed in with their opinions on the subject. The story kind of ...

The Internet Of Things: Every Device That Connects Us [Infographic]

Whether you are reading this on your cell phone, laptop, desktop or whatever other device you are using, it's still a technology gadget that will connect you to the millions of people online if you want it to. The ways we can connect with each other has skyrocketed beyond comparison the last 20 year ...

The Real Tron Light Cycle In Action [Video]

Just when you thought the Tron hype had completely died down, there are things brewing in one particular part of the world. The movie, for some, was a disappointment since it was expected to reach far greater heights on the box office chart. It did decent, no doubt about it, but the hype versus the ...

How To: Beat Airport Baggage Limits & Fees

We all know that in the past few years, airlines have really cracked down on baggage restrictions. Not only have they gotten super strict about what they will allow people to carry-on the flight, but they have also started charging fees for checked luggage, which in the past was free. This isn't ...

The Sound Tank: DJ Weapon Of Mass Temptation

As technology gets more advanced every day, we can do cooler things with lesser technology, if that makes any sense. The computers of today have enabled pretty much anyone to create simple drag-and-drop music that they can play for their friends and loved ones even in real-time. It's pretty much jus ...

Super Mario In 64 Pixels Is Just Badass!

In school, when I was a little kid, we had a class called Computer Science where we got to familiarize ourselves with a computer. My friend David and I used to think those classes were really boring since we had been playing around with computers for several years by then. The classes were all about ...

A Disease Called Humans: A Creative Comic About The Earth

One thing that we love at Bit Rebels is the planet. Since we all live so far apart from each other, we feel the distance and the vastness of the Earth on a weekly basis. As technology continues to make our world smaller by connecting us all in ways we never thought possible even a decade ago, the fa ...

Paper Roll Portraits: Amazingly Creative Paper Art

I have always found it impressive to see how differently people look at a piece of paper. While some people might see an origami fold, other people see a funny comic. The range of things you can create with a piece of paper is endless, and the only thing that will really hold you back is your own im ...

Mobile Phone History: All The Firsts [Infographic]

There is little I can say that hasn't already been said when it comes to the history and timeline of mobile phones. With every day that passes, we get more and more addicted to our phones, and it seems we can't put them down anymore. It's interesting since just a few years ago we didn't even fathom ...

The Evolution Of Video Game Controllers: Version 2.0 [Infographic]

Yes, I am a huge game junkie, and every free second I get (which isn't often) I try to play something new and exciting. I've been through World of Warcraft, Eve Online, Minecraft and pretty much every other popular game you can think of. It's a way to relax my brain and think about something else in ...

My Jedi Quiet Book: A Star Wars Embroidered Storybook

I sometimes wish I was a little bit more... hands-on when it comes to creativity. I don't "create" many things other than what's on a computer, and even though that is pretty much the largest sandbox you could ever have, it still doesn't give you that feeling that you really created something real! ...

Titanic Tattoo Masterpiece: The Story Creatively Recreated On Skin

There are certain things in life that show our age, and I'm not talking about the smile lines on our faces. For example, when my mother talks about sending a note, she means writing a note and mailing it with a stamp. When I talk about sending a note, I mean a Twitter direct message or a facebook me ...
