This Weekʼs Line-Up

The Cubes Perpetual Calendar from the MoMa Store instantly caught my eye, perhaps because of the use of CMYK colours. Anyway, it's a neat little thing to have on your desk.

If you work with others on a longer piece of writing, Penflip may be a handy tool for you to check out. Besides it providing a nice, minimal enviroment to write in, the editing, sharing, and version-control features offer a convenient way to collaborate.

I recently did an issue-swap with the people behind The Challenger's Almanac, a new print periodical that describes itself as a 'curated series of insider stories; changing perspectives on how people do business.' I'm only half way through, but it's a nice collection of people with a unique take on how to run a business.

If you're running a customer service based business, having phone support might help you retain/win over customers. Aircall is an app/service that makes this easy and affordable: you can register phone numbers in various countries in the world and have calls forwarded, auto-answered or shared between team members.

Beautiful Pages is a little book and gift shop based in Sydney, Australia. Since I'm in Melbourne, I hardly ever make it there myself, but I always enjoy their newsletter. To be clear: yes, they advertise stuff they sell, but whether you buy from them or elsewhere, the publications featured are fantastic and I always find something new. Some examples are these issues on typography, architecture or magazines. Full archive here.
