Eco-Friendly Technology: A Disposable Cardboard Flash Drive
I admit, I have way too many flash drives around my house. I'm a shoe fanatic, and just to put it in perspective, I probably have a flash drive to match every pair of shoes I own. I find those little drives all over the place, and of course, I can't ever remember what's stored on them.

Write A Note Or Article Easily With QuietWrite
I like writing when I am at home and everything is quiet, and I can think. I just grab something cold to drink, jump on my bed, open my computer, and write. When the inspiration is flowing, I can write for hours. However, there are occasions when we want to step out of the house, take a short wal ...

The Octopus That Lives In A Beer Bottle
We talk a lot about recycling on Bit Rebels. We only have one planet Earth, and once it's ruined, we can't just make another one. We have to each take responsibility and do our individual parts to help the environment thrive. It's really the only way to make a difference. It really takes the par ...
Baby Darth Vader’s Discovery Of The Force
Before the Star Wars movies became household names for awesomeness, we didn't know anything about the force. It simply wasn't a part of our vocabulary. We had no clue what light sabres were, and we definitely didn't know anything about a creature named Yoda or what the Death Star was. We lived pr ...
The Last Meal Requests of Death Row Prisoners
Here in America, we have the death penalty. It's a very controversial topic, and whether you are for it or against it, it's here.

Life: The Ultimate Instruction Manual For Men
When I was growing up, my dad took good care of us. He always made sure we had food on the table and clothes on our back.

Alertron: The Bluetooth Babysitter For Your Phone
It's interesting to me that as the number of gadgets we get grows, so do the number of products that help us keep up with them. We depend on our technology for almost everything these days, and it's only natural that we would lose our gadgets from time to time. Last week I wrote about a remote con ...
