The Unexpected Effects Of Smartphone Use (Including Acne Breakouts)
If you are a regular reader of Bit Rebels, you know how dirty your smartphone is. I've written about it many times. This is especially true if you tweet in the loo, which many people do.

Trash-Powered Cleaning Robot Will Eat The Trash & Dirt In Your House
Many times I've imagined what it would be like to have a cleaning robot roam around my house all day, keeping it sparkly clean. In my mind, it was always a robot that looked like a person who was wearing a maid's uniform and carrying around a duster. Obviously I watched too many television shows wit ...
High Tech Wristband Ensures Doctors Are Washing Hands Properly
I have tremendous respect for doctors, nurses and other medical professionals who devote their lives to helping others. I know they are always running around super busy at hospitals, so it's not hard to believe that they don't always remember to wash their hands, or if they do, it's not good enough. ...
For Workaholics: A Keyboard Design With A Lunch Bowl Built In
Do you get to take a lunch break every day when you're at work? I don't. Well, I could, but I often get so wrapped up in whatever I'm doing that I don't take time to eat until my stomach is growling so much that I'm forced to address the food issue. It's probably not the healthiest way to live, but ...

Tech Germs: Our Gadgets Are Disgustingly Dirty [Infographic]
When I saw an article on Mashable yesterday called 16% of Cellphones Have Poop On Them, I knew I had to check it out. Sure enough, as I expected, it was so nasty I almost threw up in my mouth a little. I've mentioned on Bit Rebels many times before that I'm a Germaphobe. I wash my hands a ridiculous ...
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 ...
Dirty or Delicious: The 5-Second-Rule Investigated
If you have kids, you are probably familiar with the 5-second-rule. It's a rule that claims that if you drop food on the floor, but pick it up within 5 seconds, it's still safe and clean to eat. My 10 year old son lives by the 5-second-rule. If he didn't, he wouldn't eat much since he drops food ...
Science: He Wore Jeans For 15 Months Without Washing Them
I know you are probably wondering how this article can be about science, but trust me, wearing jeans for 15 months without washing them is as much a science experiment as anything else. Can you even imagine the bacteria that would be growing on those badboys? Gross. Well, at least that is what any ...
FOKI: The Shoes That Clean The Floor
After a long day of hard work, sometimes it seems coming home is yet another time to get busy working. Even though you're off work, the work that awaits you at home can be even more important. Dishes have to be cleaned, beds have to be made and floors have to be vacuumed. It's all a part of our d ...
Bubble Scrubber: The Fun Way To Clean The Dishes
Anyone who doesn't have a dishwasher knows that the task of washing plates, glasses, knives and forks can be the most boring job in the world.

The USB Curse Cup – You Say It, You Pay It
I don't want to brag or come across as a prude, but I have never been much of a swearer really. Not that I don't curse at all, of course I do. However, there are far better words to express the nature of the situation when needed, in my opinion. Some people have made it a habit to curse, and it c ...
