Scary & Spectacular: World’s Highest Tennis Court
We are no strangers to creative architecture on Bit Rebels. There is really nothing more inspiring that seeing a designer build something unusual and unexpected in a public space, and we've written about it too many times to count. My favorite ones so far are this insane playground, this humongous o ...

Gold Plated Atari 2600: Not Owning This Would Be A Sin
It's hard to believe that the world was in a serious economic recession not too long ago. Sure, we can still see the effects of it, and with Greece in such a troubled situation, it's evident that we're not entirely out of danger just yet. However, we can't keep looking back on the troubles of yester ...

The ONE Reason To Be On Google+!
Yes, I am on it! I was pleasantly surprised to be contacted by @Iconic88 on Twitter through Empire Avenue that he had an invite for the Google+ beta if I was interested. I happily said that I was, and I started my adventures within the Google social network. However, I fell short due to time restrai ...

Summer Cooling Spray: This Is Just Too Cool
Today it's unbelievably hot here in Stockholm. I am trying to keep cool by the computer; however, it feels more like I'm sitting in jam packed server room without air conditioning to be honest. I got myself a bottle of Coca Cola Zero, chilled of course, but that's pretty much the only thing I have a ...

Top 10 Worst Places To Lose Your Smartphone
I've noticed that there are pretty much two categories of people. There are those who are always on time for everything, they never lose anything and they somehow seem completely organized all the time. My mother falls into this category.

The Importance Of Play During Working Hours [Infographic]
Most companies today have fundamentally missed the fact that engaging their employees in play and things that are fun is key to a healthy and growing corporation. I have seen so many companies get so far up into their own agenda that they really just... well, function. Employees complain when they g ...

Crazy Glow Stick Experiment: Let There Be Light!
My first contact, visually that is, with glow sticks was when I watched some movie for the first time. It was a lot of years ago, but I still remember the cool attitude those puppies gave off. I was mesmerized by the light and the simplicity of how they worked. I don't exactly remember which movie i ...

Germaphobes: New Technology Makes Clothes Germ-Free
Do you carry hand sanitizer around with you and use it like it's your lifesaver? Do you wash your hands at least once each hour? Do you dread touching door knobs and faucets in public bathrooms? Do you buy everything you can that has an "anti-bacterial" label on it? If so, you are a germaphobe like ...

Extreme Tattoos: His Entire Body Is A Work Of Art
Having a lot of tattoos is one thing, but having over 80% of your body covered in tattoos and then becoming a model for GQ magazine is on a whole other level. I can see why famous photographers (and twin sisters) Aline and Jacqueline Tappia wanted to shoot Rick Genest for this month's issue of GQ It ...

A Colorful Rubik’s Cube Birthday Cake For Geeks
Aww man, I can't believe I missed the 37th birthday of the Rubik's Cube on July 13th. That little colorful cube was such a huge part of my childhood. I remember the first time I solved it. In the moment that I realized I finished it, I was so confident I could have probably found the solution to wor ...

Comic-Con Circa 1988: Take A Walk Back In Time
I've had a blast watching all the tweets about Comic-Con this week. If you go Twitter Search and put in #ComicCon, you'll see a never-ending stream of tweets flowing that are funny, witty and weird.

LinkedIn Interaction Mapped & Presented [Infographic]
I am one of those people who signs up for everything new so I can look through it, assess it, and then decide whether it is something that I want to spend any considerable time crunking around in. Sometimes, as we all know, we just don't have time to deal with more social media or networking sites, ...

Geolocated Paintings: The World Has Many Faces
With technology becoming more and more powerful, we can experience the world getting smaller so to speak. It has been predicted by many scientists over the years that we will keep feeling the world shrinking, and that may very well be the reason why we are undertaking the huge endeavor of trying to ...
