We have covered a couple of amazing snuggies here on Bit Rebels, and we are not about to stop anytime soon.

The Unusual Handshake Device: For Those Awkward Moments
We've written about the designs of Dominic Wilcox many times on Bit Rebels. His innovative and creative style always makes me smile. I have to wonder though, when he created this design, was he serious or was it a sarcastic gesture?
There are many reasons why some people don't like shaking hand ...
Do Your Part and Recycle: Fashion Inspiration
The world's population is getting larger everyday. Everyone knows what that means right? It means our resources are also depleting. I remember in the days when I was young, we could still drink water straight from the faucets and now we need to either filter our water or buy bottled water. It is ...

I love books. I have a collection of books that I go through for reference and for inspiration. I also like reading books for entertainment. My sister loves to read too, and she has a collection of books that she keeps in her room. There are stacks and stacks of them. I remember she even had to ...
The 4th Dimension – Crush, Kill, Destroy!

M.C. Escher’s Impossible Worlds Recreated In Lego!
Whatever the word "impossible" means, it's not exactly the same meaning every time. It's just a vessel to express the difficulty of the task that lies ahead. Nothing is impossible really. All you need are the right tools to solve the problem. So what are the tools? In this case, it's the legend ...
Futurama World – Now All In Lego!
How many successes can a guy have? Well, according to the guy behind "The Simpsons," several.

It is another hugely successful animated TV show tha ...
Urban Beautification – How To Make The World A Better Place
I don't know what started it, but I am one of those "odd" people that continuously thinks about how the world could be a better place.

Do You Long for Peace in the World? – This Is for You
Wow, I haven't seen anything this powerful in a while. This five minute John Lennon interview about peace, called "I Met the Walrus," won the 2009 Emmy for "New Approaches." It was the first film ever to win an Emmy on behalf of the Internet.
According to YouTube, this is how the story goes, "I ...

In a nutshell, the oldest shoe has been discovered. I know, it's completely random and a little silly, but check this thing out! It looks nu ...
If Geeks Ruled The World…This Is What It Would Look Like!
It's an odd title I know, especially when it's already true. I mean with Steve Jobs, Bill Gates and the two friends, Larry Page and Sergey Brin (who founded one of the world's most successful companies - Google), setting the pace and lifestyle we're enjoying today, it's hard to say geeks are not al ...

This Teenager Set A World Record In Her Pink Boat
What were you doing when you were 16 years old? I was working at Wendy's, talking to my girlfriends about boys, and experimenting with blue eyeshadow for the first time.
Guess what this teenager just did? Jessica Watson, a 16 year old from Australia, sailed around the world, by herself, in her ...
The World As Seen Through Bubbles!
I love blogging. I see the world differently because of it. However, not only differently, but I should say, I literally became aware of everything around me because of blogging. I love looking at photographs for example, and seeing how skillful the photographers are in capturing with their lense ...
