Gift A Stranger: Hi Tech Random Acts of Kindness
Everyone loves to do and receive random acts of kindness, right? At least most people I know do. I've always been a fan of this, and I try to do things in my daily life to bring that extra sunshine to others. For example, it's always fun to pay for the car behind me at the tollbooth on Georgia 40 ...

Spot Now: This New Mobile App Is Like Geolocation On Steroids
I admit it. I'm not a Foursquare or Gowalla user. It's not because I'm not interested in checking out geolocation apps, it's more because I'm pitifully boring, and I don't go to enough unique places to be worth checking into, in my opinion. However, with this new mobile app called Spot Now, I mig ...
Romba Pac-Man: Vacuuming Suddenly Makes So Much More Sense!
It was a while ago now that we saw the first generation of the robotic or autonomous vacuum cleaner grace the shelves in the stores. At first it was a sort of a miracle and ahead of its time. But today, it seems the super hero power of the Romba vacuum cleaner has faded quite a bit, and everyone i ...
This Fallout Costume Will Scare Your Friends Half To Death
So Halloween is over and there is no real need to put on a custom anymore. However, there is always that odd thing people do called Cosplay. Yeah, if you're not familiar with it, it's when geeks create their own awesome game character costumes (or whatever costume they want to create) and role pla ...
Cozy Up On A Demon Rug By The Fire? Maybe Not!
Every New Years Eve, here in Sweden, we have this show that entails a bear rug on the floor which a butler always stumbles over when serving the lady of the house. When I was a little boy, I used to think it was hilarious, but the excitement sort of dies down a bit as the years pass I guess. Howev ...
Openaire: Folds From Laptop Bag Into Desk And Chair!
We have all been there and the annoyance factor is at its highest when it happens. You're out in the field, and you decide to pop open your laptop to do some much needed work. There's only one problem, you have nowhere comfortable to sit and landing the computer in your lap, even though it's calle ...
STEREOO: Could Be The Smallest 3D Camera In The World!

Everything goes 3D and even our televisions are now starting to incorporate technologies into them to give us the option to watch movies, shows an ...
5 Lessons A Snowflake Can Teach Us About Blogging
We aren't very familiar with snow in Atlanta. If we are lucky, it snows about two or three days each winter (about an inch or two each time), and it is usually melted after a few hours. However, this week it's very different. It's like we are living in the twilight zone or something. We have a l ...
Get Your Own 3D Printer For The Same Price As An iPad!
Working with 3D software is really a joy when you get the results you're after. The process; however, can be long and tedious as you will have to model, surface, light and animate your objects and scenes. But when you're done, and everything is all set, then you can create things that even your be ...
Now The Troops Can Enjoy Playing PS3 Even If In Battle!
Over here at Bit Rebels we don't exactly have time to sit around and play all of the awesome games that get released every week, but we certainly keep track of them as best we can. Sometimes I wish I had a cool arcade cabinet at the office just like Diana (slightly jealous). But if I had one, I'd ...
A Star Wars Trench Run Is More Fun In Real Life
The snow is getting ever deeper over here in Sweden, and I have heard from Diana that they even have snow in Atlanta these days. Even though the temperature has somewhat risen here the last couple of days, you can be sure there will be more snow coming any day now. That's usually the case of here. ...
This Oven Lounge Geekifies Your Home Like Nothing Else!
Do you remember the article I wrote about the stove turned into a stereo system not too long ago? Some mad designer took a stove and modified it into a fully working, geeky looking party machine with a touchscreen and all. I am sure if we all had one of those, not only would we all be a heck of a ...
Geeks Store Their Cables The Recycled Way!
Sometimes I get really annoyed by the massive amount of cords that I have laying on the floor around my workstation at the office in order to have the fullest and most extreme experience in front of the computer. We're talking two computers, a bunch of USB gear, three monitors, a speaker system (in ...
Old Skateboards Become Magnificent Peruvian Art!
Sometimes I wish I had continued riding that second-hand skateboard of mine when I was a bit younger. Maybe I could have become the Tony Hawk of geeks or something. I hardly doubt it, but it would have been fun to do a 360 just to impress the girls. Now, instead, I am flaunting my geekiness with ...
