The Cube – In This Office You’re the Boss!
For those of us in the corporate world, we slave away at our desk most of the day and more often than not, we are in front of our computers.

Rain Soaked Umbrellas Are No Longer A Problem!
It is now rainy season where I live. From June to September it rains almost everyday. The best defense for rainy weather is, of course, our trusty umbrellas. The only thing that is a hassle is when you need to store them after you get inside. If we do not have a holder available, we tend to leav ...
How To: Get Out Of Bed When Your Alarm Goes Off
What is it about clocks? I just realized today that we've written a lot of articles on Bit Rebels about clocks. Is it because our entire lives are mandated by what time it is?
That is one of the reasons I don't wear a watch. It is my subtle way of giving time the finger so I can be free to do ...

Artist Doodles – Permanent Marker Used to Create Installation

What a great way to start the month, seeing a bunch of Star Wars related gear that will make any home into a geekilicious lair of Star Wars awesomeness.

Coffee Never Had This Much Zing!
I love coffee!! I know a lot of you out there would agree that the day wouldn't be complete without a cup of good coffee!

The Bionic Mouse: Fashionable Extension Of Your Hand
I get so tired of these "normal" and "usual" designs for the mouse. They always come in this bulging lump of plastic with a sensor underneath and a couple of buttons pinching the roller wheel. It's like we never evolved the device after we found a working concept. Maybe it is because people are t ...

Impress Your Friends – Origami with a Twist!
I love origami, otherwise known as the art of paper folding. I think it takes a lot of patience on the part of the artist to create artwork from a simple piece of paper. Have you ever seen origami used for table napkins? I have, and they look quite delicate and elegant when presented at formal di ...

“Delete” Wipes: Clean Dirt Off Your Computer!
I think everyone agrees with me that the keyboard is probably the most dirty and germ infected spot in your whole house (yes, even more so than the bathroom as suggested by an episode of Mythbusters).

Well, here on Bit R ...

Inception Movie: Legolized!
I don't think it has escaped anyone's attention that Inception is, next after The Matrix, the highest grossing sci-fi movie ever released. The intricate storyline and the spectacular special effects make the movie somewhat of a milestone of combined efforts to make the über movie of the century. E ...

Yet again we cover something made of paper. It's not exactly the first time, but I can honestly and with a promise say that you have never seen anything like this before.

The Freaky Toy That Will Help Children Deal With Fears
As a child, you can never be sure anyone can keep a secret. Sharing your fears and troubles with someone might seem scary and sometimes just not the right thing to do. It could potentially feel shameful to stick your neck out to get some well needed comforting. Grown-ups have a far more mature wa ...
