It's been all over the Internet lately...Apparently the dangers of sleep texting are severe since people seem to be making such a big deal out of it.

How Google Glass Will Affect Our Driving Experience [Infographic]
I am excited to try Google Glass so I can see firsthand what all the fuss is about. There's no doubt it will enhance our lives in almost every way, but what about when we are driving? How will wearing Glass affect our driving experience? I've had two car accidents in the past two months, and one thi ...

How Techspeak Can Hurt Your English Grammar Skills [Infographic]
If you spend a lot of time on text, Twitter, Skype chat or any other instant messaging service (who doesn't these days?), you might find it easier to remember techspeak more than grammar rules. Techspeak is the way we 'speak' on those services. It includes all the SMS abbreviations, plus more, that ...

Umbrella Design Let’s You Text & Hold An Umbrella At The Same Time
I rarely ever carry an umbrella when it rains. Aside from the fact I can never find one when I need it, it's hard to carry. What I mean is that I'm always carrying other things with my hands like a Caramel Macchiato and my iPhone. With the way an umbrella requires us to hold it, it makes it challeng ...

The Truth About Driving Distractions [Infographic]
If you've been reading Bit Rebels for a while, you probably know that I live in Atlanta. Two days ago, there was a woman driving down the highway here while making a salad in her car. I've heard of people eating burgers and talking on the phone while driving, and I even wrote about this crazy driver ...

WalkNText: Master Walking & Texting With This iPhone/Android App
Now you can finally become the master of your own domain and confidently walk and text (simultaneously) whenever, wherever you want.

Type-N-Walk App For Clumsy People: Text & Tweet While Walking
Can you walk and text at the same time? I can't. I've busted my butt more than once trying to do it. It's even more frustrating for me to tweet while I'm walking because with one wrong move, I'll accidentally send a lame or bogus tweet to over 60,000 people. I'm super clumsy. I fell yesterday gettin ...

Social Lights: Intimate Moments With An iPhone [10 Pics]
I always joke that I'm involved in a very serious relationship with my iPhone. Every day he goes with me everywhere, and if he was suddenly missing from my life, I would be sad for a long time. He is always by my side, and even when it's finally time to sleep, I keep him right there under my pillow. ...

What You Text vs. What I See [Humor]
Texting is really strange when you think about it. Just yesterday I was standing in line at a store, and there was a group of four or five teenagers in front of me. I just stood there watching them because every single one of them was talking to the others, but at the same time, having text conversa ...

Cell Phone Etiquette: Don’t Be A Jerk [Infographic]
Some people who buy a cell phone don't realize that with it comes a responsibility. Just because you have one, it doesn't mean you can use it whenever you want to without paying some respect to the people around you. I personally have a really hard time understanding people who bust out their cell ...

This Is Why Parents Shouldn’t Text [Humor]
I refuse to friend anyone in my family on Facebook. There, I said it. It completely creeps me out when my two worlds collide. There is a friend world and a family world. They are very separate and distinct in my mind.
I had an uncle that wanted to connect with me recently on Facebook, and whe ...
