I was asked recently to be the subject in a live online twitterview. I was honored that anyone was interested in learning more about me and what I had to say. I try to sit in on the twitterviews of my followers and others whom seem of interest any chance I get. A twitterview is a wonderful way to learn more about great people from all ends of the world. What is a Twitterview? Just as it sounds, a Twitterview is a live interview conducted on ...
I love coming across a truly creative background on Twitter. With each new follower, I take the time to check out the background art (along with bio and link) before I follow back. Backgrounds can include a number of different qualities in addition to creative, such as informative, good design, to-the-point, personal, and professional. The best backgrounds are the ones that include each of these characteristics. We all know that first impressions can make or break any relationship. The same goes for finding new people on Twitter. Twitter backgrounds are important for any ...
If you are on Twitter, are a geek, a gamer, or following any of us Rebels, you have heard and probably even used the word “w00t!” Its a term that is Twittered from the Philippines to Hollywood. So, what the heck is a w00t? “Woot” is a term used by many online junkies as a quick way to express “like” or “awesomeness” in a statement or phrase. (my own definition) Where did “woot” originate? How did such a silly term get so popular? OK, all of ...
You heard me… Go Elf Yourself! Last year OfficeMax started a viral marketing campaign where you could upload an image of your own face into an animated video (by JibJab) and dance around as an elf. Yes, sure it sounds silly, but it was a hit amongst friends and co-workers and always made for a good laugh. As Christmas is quickly approaching, the site is gaining popularity once again. ElfYourself.com has made it easy and fun to whip up your own holiday video… all you need ...
Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. I love getting together with family to share a large feast and playing “how many belt buckle holes I can drop”. Afterwards its lying on the couch watching football and the breath-taking blows of the kids jumping on my stomach. And this year (if you are me), desert will include apple pie AND a birthday cake. Could there be a better day on the calendar? Today Thanksgiving may be a family feast and the collective giving of thanks, however history tells ...
Recently, we had our first BitRebels business meeting on Google Wave. Although, I am not sure how much “business” was being conducted with the dizziness of all included. As much of a tech-junkie group we all are, it was more like we all passed the peace-pipe around and wandered into a closed-door meeting of great minds and stumbling feet. Google Wave is something that certainly takes some getting used to. There were 5 of us (maybe 6) having different conversations all over the page. At one ...
There are not many games I play on Facebook, I just cant find the time. However, there is one game I do play called Bejeweled Blitz because it only lasts one minute. Bejeweled Blitz is a new twist on an old classic game. The goal is to get as many points as you can in one minute by matching identical “gems”. Add Multiplier Gems, Speed Bonuses and some funky sounds effects and you have yourself a new afternoon addiction. Like many of the other Facebook games, ...
Do you know what I hate? Facebook games. Do you know what I hate more than Facebook games? Updates from Facebook games that your friends just beat your score or they just purchased pigs on the farm. Is it just me or have Facebook games and applications taken over your social media world too? It may be hard to tell from that intro, but I am actually a big fan of Facebook. I think that the application is the best way to keep up and remain social ...
Its a bird, its a plane, its…. a dude with a little camera attached to his helmet! Check out this new digital camera being released this fall. The Hero HD is designed for extreme sports, but the compact camera would be perfect to mount and record just about anything, anywhere. The HD camera has nearly infinite depth-of-field along with a very wide lens. Also encased is a microphone so you can record high-def video with great audio. What makes this camera extra-cool is the variety of ...
I came across these sculptures while searching for IT monsters (dont ask). The works, Technology versus Organic Life, was created by German artist Matthias Manner. Very cool stuff, but is this art or some sort of alien life that was injected into the IT room upstairs? Matthias’s sculpures are quite unique and he is certainly a talented creator. This stuff is much better than I could do with some sheetrock and computer cables. All joking aside, the sculptures are eye-catching and visually fun to look at. So, ...
This is a follow-up to a follow-up. You dedicated Bit Rebels readers will know where this is going. Move Over Pepsi, Coke is on BitRebels & Awesome Peps Commercials are a couple of great articles written by my fellow rebels. Well, I have root beer on the mind and I hate to tell you ladies but this small beer was around before either of your soda’s and reigns amongst a guys first choice when a real beer is unavailable. Root beer was easily my most favorite drink ...
Its good to be Jay Leno. Along with his recent success in a new prime-time weekday comedy spot (The Jay Leno Show), Mr. Leno now has a sweet new high-tech supercar that runs on turbine-powered bio-diesel and is said to have the ability to top 245 MPH. Not only does Jay own one of the original nine ’63 Chrysler turbine cars, he built his own with the help of some of the guys in GM’s Advanced Design Studios. How cool is that? Jay had the designers ...
