My first stop is\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.hvper.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Hvper<\/a>, which is a super aggregator that collects the top headlines of every news source out there into ONE single page. I see what\u2019s at the top of mind in the both the New York Times and Wall Street Journal, plus HuffPo and Fox News, plus Al Jazeera and the Drudge Report. Plus Reddit, Digg, BuzzNews, Twitter, CNN, ABC, Verge, Wired, and on and on. All of it! The whole news media landscape in a one-page dashboard. Each headline is clickable directly to the source. It is fast, clean (no ads!), free and magical. Must read. \u2014 KK<\/p>\n<p><strong>Explainer videos<\/strong><br \/>\nI love good explainer videos. The best are made by\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCsXVk37bltHxD1rDPwtNM8Q\" target=\"_blank\">Kurzgesagt<\/a>. Their 5-minute videos are stunningly animated and cover topics such as automation, genetic engineering, gamma ray bursts, and ebola. They often leave me in awe about our universe. \u2014 MF<\/p>\n<p><strong>Best seat<\/strong><br \/>\nI was having some back pain and pinched nerves, so Kevin bought\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/ASIN\/B016OIF3VC\/recomendos-20\" target=\"_blank\">this Steelcase Gesture Chair<\/a>\u00a0for my work desk. Those issues are non-existent now. So many different ways to position and sit in it. It\u2019s so comfortable I have to set reminders throughout the day to get up or else I never would. \u2014 CD<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fast life<\/strong><br \/>\nJust as I zip through podcasts at 1.5x speed, I recently learned I can speed up YouTube videos too. So now I go through twice as many tutorials. Just click on the gear-circle at the bottom right corner of the YouTube frame, and in the pop-up menu select Speed and your choice up to 2x. \u2014 KK<\/p>\n<p><strong>Stylish shower cap<\/strong><br \/>\nSome days I skip out on washing my hair. After my reserve of complimentary hotel shower caps ran out, I needed to buy own.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/ASIN\/B00KI0X0I6\/recomendos-20\" target=\"_blank\">These<\/a>\u00a0are cheap and long-lasting, but the prints are what sold me \u2014 nostalgic and fun. Reminds me of my grandmother in Mexico. \u2014 CD<\/p>\n<p><strong>Great sketching pen<\/strong><br \/>\nMy friend Bob Knetzger is a toy inventor. He uses Paper Mate Flair felt-tip pens to sketch out his designs. I bought a\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2fyhrZU\" target=\"_blank\">dozen for $7<\/a>\u00a0and was reminded why I liked them so much in the 1970s. The lines are smooth and you can vary the line weight by changing the angle between the pen and paper. \u2014 MF<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em><a href=\"http:\/\/recomendo.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Get the Recomendo weekly newsletter<\/a>\u00a0a week early by email.<\/em><\/p>\n<div class='ctx-module-container ctx_default_placement ctx-clearfix'><\/div><span class=\"ctx-article-root\"><!-- --><\/span>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Recomendo: issue no. 56<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":13684,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mi_skip_tracking":false},"categories":[2323],"tags":[2324],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29461"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/13684"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=29461"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29461\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":29463,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29461\/revisions\/29463"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=29461"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=29461"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=29461"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
