The Next Generation Real Life Jukebox Is A Geek Must Have
As technology geeks, we're constantly looking for the next cool thing. It doesn't matter if it won't catch on to become the next trendy thing, you just have to have it.

The History Of Gaming: From Oscilloscope To Virtual Reality
I have always wondered how people can ignore the power of gaming and say it's utter play. Of course it's play, but one must not forget that it is because of play that we have the technologies we have today, no matter what it is. It's from the trials and errors that we have developed into the speci ...

This Is Jada: The First Working Badminton Robot In The World
Sports have always been the main activity for kids to get their butts out the door. For grown-ups, it's a bit different since with age we seem to slow down on the activities a little and become couch potatoes. But with technology changing, we are getting some really cool and nifty things that will ...

Retro Joystick Makes Your iPad That Much Cooler!
Recently Diana wrote about a suction cup iPad controller that plenty of people found quite interesting (I was one of them). But the retro feel of that "button" didn't fully tickle my fancy, so I set out to see if I could find one better. I wanted one that could make my wet retro dreams become realit ...

Fingerist: The Only Real Way To Play Guitar On Your iPhone
I sometimes wish I remembered what the first app was called that was granted access into the App Store. When the iPhone was first released, there were of course not many apps in the store, but that all changed, and quickly I might add. Even though it wasn't the first app, there was an app that made ...

Now You Can Play A Solo On… The Millennium Falcon!
What do you think about when you think about an instrument? You probably think about a guitar, a piano or even a set of drums. If you're a geek, you probably think about a measuring instrument or maybe even a top of the line computer. If you do, you're quite normal and shouldn't worry a thing abo ...

Pillow Remote: Just Make Sure You Don’t Drool On It!
I have to admit that I am not exactly a frequent telly watcher. It's a pastime that my schedule doesn't allow, and I would blame myself forever if I ever got addicted to a series or some useless zapping. I think it's way better to use the time to stay creative, and spend it with your loved ones. ...

Play That T-Shirt: Electronic Music Synthesizer Shirt
We have become obsessed with the illustrations and designs on the t-shirts from Seventh.Ink, but when it comes to next level t-shirts, there are always things to improve upon.

Now You Can Store Your LEGO In A LEGO Block!
The LEGO theme here on Bit Rebels is amazingly apparent and alive. We write about LEGO pretty much every chance we get. Why? Because we can and because we love it just like half the world does as well. There's something about those blocks that make us all wanna become architects and engineers. ...

Hybrid Toys: The Ultimate Way Of Reusing Your Toys!
When talking to elderly people, the most common thing they say always starts with "When I was a kid..." Then there is a whole monologue about how things were so much less focused on what you had and instead focused on what you could do with the things you already had. I couldn't even tell you how m ...

Stylophone Beatbox: Next Gen In Retro Beatboxing
As a music producer and writer, I have come across a slew of gadgets and instruments that will make creating music truly creative and fun. However, there is a danger in using too much of these in a song since it will take away from the artist's performance, and it will become just a production. Th ...

iPong: Only True Way To Play Table Tennis With Yourself!
Back when I was in school, I used to play table tennis during each lunch break, and I did pretty good if I may say so myself without bragging too much. It's a great way to get some moderate exercise, and it's also a lot of fun and involves pretty much everyone that wants to join in. However, if yo ...

Want To Know What Super Mario Looks Like On The Inside?
We are among the millions of people that kept playing Super Mario Bros. even though we had finished it over and over. There was just something about that game that made us all caught up in it. It could possibly be the adventure and rescuing a princess that kept us so mesmerized. Did you ever real ...

Man Builds World’s Largest Remote Controlled Toy!
As a little kid, remote controlled cars were not that common, but of course they were the coolest ever if you had one. Now you can buy remote controlled vehicles for pennies it seems. But with that comes a downgraded quality which makes the whole thing a bit less fun. There are small helicopters ...

Eagle: The New LG Concept Cell Phone Redefines Pong!
I wish that this was more of a tutorial about how to create a concept cell phone cause there are a slew of them on the Internet. Each day new and exciting concepts are released upon the world, but most will probably never see the light of day as a real product that we all can buy. However, that's ...
