If Seinfeld Would Have Had Access To Social Media [Comics]
You see, I was never one of the biggest fans of Seinfeld. I liked watching it, I definitely did, but I never planned my life around it like some people did back when it was a new show. The setup was easy and everyone could identify with the topics they brought up; however, they of course took it way ...
Social Media Bathroom Mirrors: Twitter & Facebook While In The Loo
There's no question that people are inspired to update their social media sites while they are in the bathroom. I can relate to that. When I'm in the bathroom brushing my teeth or even taking a bath, my iPhone is always right there on the shelf within reach. I've even ruined a phone by dropping it i ...

What's the best piece of advice you've ever gotten? I remember several years ago a much older friend of mine said to me, "Never take advice from anyone you wouldn't trade places with."

Drowning In Photos: Over 1,000,000 Flickr Photographs Printed
Do you remember back in the old days when we used to carry around a few photos in some plastic sleeves in our wallets?

How Social Media Compromises Home Security [Infographic]
I remember when social media first started becoming really popular back around 2009, people who were much older than me would many times make comments about how unsafe they thought it was for us to announce our whereabouts to the world. Although that concern seemed legit on a logical level, most of ...
How To: Twitter & Ride Your Bike At The Same Time
I ride my bike a lot; it's my primary source of exercise. If I had the time, I'd ride my bike all day everyday, I love it that much. As I've written many times before, the only thing that could make my bike riding experience better would be if I could tweet and ride at the same time. Right now, if I ...
Illustration: IRL Angry Birds Right In Your Own Backyard
A few years ago, there was a clear distinction between our virtual lives and our IRL lives. People often spoke of them as two separate entities; however, that has changed.

The Sling Shot Camera: Make Your Photos Deviously Fun
We all know how important photos are these days, especially in social media. We now use pictures as a way to validate and verify (or secure bragging rights) for claims made by users. You know the saying, "pics or it didn't happen." There is even a whole psychology behind women and Facebook photos. T ...

How Google Affects Our Memory [Infographic]
I remember back towards the beginning of the year when Chris Pirillo and Danny Brown both wrote articles about how social media is, in a sense, making us lazy. They started a whole online conversation about it, and many other blogs weighed in with their opinions on the subject.
The story kind of ...
Twitterholic Ladies: Elegant Hand Painted Satin Twitter Pumps
Now that we have all been thrust into social media, and we under its spell like a bunch of drones, getting married has gotten even more complicated.

If you are familiar with Bit Rebels, you know that between @mistygirlph and I, we've written several dozen articles about social media friendships over the past two years.

Most Popular Design Blogs By Social Media Following [Infographic]
