Bees, Gmail Shortcuts & Awesome Instagram Stories

Happy Wednesday !

I hope you're having a great week. Here are some things I've been checking out and working on the last week:

Articles I'm Reading:

How to win the Tour de France, in one image - Fast Company - hard to believe this hasn't been done before, but a fascinating wind tunnel study reveals how much energy you save at various positions in the Peloton. TL;DR: sit in the back.

Swarming (honey bee) - Wikipedia - I went golfing last night, and walked by a tree I could hear buzzing from about 50 feet away - turns out it was full of bees, and this is apparently what happens when a bee departs (thanks Dad). Crazy to see in person.

Productivity Hack: Gmail Shortcuts

I wrote about Superhuman a little while ago as a productivity tool for email. One of the major time-savers was the shortcuts used. Turns out you can activate many of the same ones in Gmail itself. Here's a list of some of the most useful for you to print, and an explanation on how to turn them on. If you do any email at all, I can't emphasize enough how big a game-changer this is.

Product I'm Using: DJI Osmo Mobile 2

In my opinion, this is the best bang-for-your-buck purchase you can make if you're interested in making videos, or just having awesome Instagram stories. This stabilizer uses your phone instead of an onboard camera, which means it costs less than $200 CAD, tax in. I just got one, and it's been amazing. I'll send some example videos next week.

Have a great week!
