Take away his room. Mine did this once when I was being "anti-social" I was allowed 10 minutes twice a day to change clothes and could only go in there to get what I wanted/needed with permission and at bedtime where my door was left open. Basically my mum locked me out of my room. Make him do chores and volunteer work as well. Keep him busy.
If your child is bullying people, there are obviously underlying issues that cannot be fixed by mere grounding.
Invite his friends over without telling him, trust me, his days of being a bully will be over...
I would give him a stinging lecture, change the wifi password, take away something special (video games, books, whatever) and only cook boring vegetarian for a month! At the end of the month I'd have a calm discussion with him and talk about the benefits of being kind and positive and ask why he feels the need to be mean.
Put a new password on the wifi (brace for the tantrum) then give him a to do list everyday while he is grounded, locking x-box controllers away is also an effective (brace for the tantrum again) punishment/incentive.
Take the door off his room. It's the meanest parental punishment in the world but lack of privacy is an extreme incentive. Also no tech, no hobbies, and community service (not like play with the cute dogs at the shelter community service. Like pick up trash off the highway community service).
It might also be a good idea to take him to a professional to talk about and figure out why he is resorting to bullying. Often it's tied with major self esteem issues or other difficulties that can be figured out with a counselor.
It's often tied to issues at home or with the upbringing, but not often to a self esteem issue. Bullies don't have much empathy, and often blame their problems on others and justify that their "revenge" is appropriate. Kinda like this: "Kid with ugly hair? That kid ruins my mood - it's his own fault if people tease him for it - he should know better". Bullies often have pretty damn good self esteem, until the bullying backfires.
Uh, the "to " in the second sentence got in there :S
super glue in the lotion. he'll think twice about making another smartass comment the next time you punish him.
It's toxic...

Take away his computer then. At least make it boring for him
Better than bullying, I guess o.o
