Beautiful Pencil Shaving Portraits Go Far Beyond Trash
Isn't it wonderful how even the smallest and most useless objects can be used to create art?

Keyboard Of The Future: It Has The Features You Give It
I think I tell Diana at least 10 times a day or something about the issues I am having with my current keyboard. It's one of those boring and ordinary ones; however, I like the feeling of typing on it. For my mac, I of course have one of those slim keyboards, but I have come to somewhat question the ...

The Anatomy Of An Effective Web Design [Infographic]
When creating a new website, there are a lot of things to consider before getting down to the nitty gritty stuff.

The Elastic Alphabet: Rubber Band Typography
It's easy to see why so many people like typography in all its shapes and forms.

The Star Wars Millennium Falcon Coffee Table
There is no shortage in geek customizations these days, and the more we look, the more we find. So far we've seen everything from Nintendo NES controller coffee tables to large working iPhone blow-up (meaning uber scale) coffee tables. The imagination of home tinkerers is never ending, and I foresee ...

How To: Tell If Your Website Sucks
Starting a website is not as easy as some people might think.

While it grows, you will stumble upon things that you hadn't foreseen, ...

Neon Movie Signs: The Animated Gif Versions
Why is it that I always find the coolest stuff through my co-workers (in this case Diana)? It's a constant sharefest here at Bit Rebels, and we always shoot each other stuff that we think would fit our different writing personalities. Star Wars is a huge hit here on Bit Rebels, and I think we have a ...

Dead Computer Room: Makes You Want To Say WTF!
There you are typing away on your computer not thinking about the fact that one day it will be yesterday's technology.

May The Fork Be With You: The Geek Way To Eat Corn
This little idea by Shed Simove was originally created to encourage kids to eat their corn. All I can say is, forget the kids; I want one of these for myself. This design is called Cornobi (as in Obi Wan Cornobi). As you can see, it's corn on the cob transformed into a dangerously fun lightsaber.

The Evolution Of Graphic Design [Infographic]

Some people may think that this whole thing we call graphics is just something we made up when we first started using computers, and it became possible to draw simple pictures on them. Of ...

Star Wars X-Wing Fighter Soapbox Derby Car
As a kid, my brother and I were always talking about the ultimate soapbox car, and how it would be built. We had a couple of runs building some, which to our amazement, were quite fast and cool. However, the designs were nothing that gave us bragging rights, but that of course didn't matter to us. W ...
