Staying Busy & the Post VR Sadness

What a crazy week, once again. I have a lot of things to share with you which hopefully help you get a good start into a fresh new week.

Besides that, lots of new little design optimizations happened on my blog with the hope to improve your reading experience even more.

1. TIME MACHINE: To Stay Productive, Staying Busy is the Key

One of the reasons I write is because I write for myself. And one of the benefits of doing it for more than a year every Sunday, is that I can look back at the article I've written one year ago.

It's like discovering my own writing again, reminding myself what was important to me one year ago.

Today this article is "Stay Busy", a piece on the importance of  staying busy within reason, and how I manipulate myself to get the shit done.

It was a good reminder to myself, and I hope it can serve as a good reminder to you as well.

2. The Post Virtual Reality Sadness (or you could call it VR Derealization Effect)

I published an article just yesterday about something I've been thinking for a while now. After playing with Virtual Reality the last couple of weeks, I learned about this feeling I have after "intense" VR sessions.

And to document my experience with VR, I figured writing this down for you might be the best idea.

3. *Updated* My Top11 Tools Essential to my Work

Depending on if you're new to this email list or not, I've already published this Top11 Tools article about a  year ago, but I completely revised and updated it. So if you're looking for some helpful essential tools for your Mac, this list might be helpful to you. I tried to focus on tools you might not know, so even if there is one or two you haven't heard of yet, I consider this a win.

4. More High-Res wallpapers for you

Last week I shared my new "Goodies" section with you, and today I add two new high-res wallpapers to it. I hope you enjoy them, and as always, they're free (unless you decide something different) - You can do whatever you want with these pictures, download, edit & remix them. I hope you enjoy.

Also, my friend Jean-Marc Denis created a similar section on his website where he shares beautiful BLACK wallpapers made in 3D with you, all free to use as well. I highly recommend.

5. Top Tweets of this week

To keep this section of the email alive, my top tweets for you in case you aren't on Twitter. (I'm not judging you :p )

#1 - Casualy listening to music while charging your phone.
#2 - Apple introduces a new Peach Emoji. Outrageous.
#3 - No joke, my website about 9 years ago.

I hope you enjoyed this weeks email & as always, please DO let me know via Twitter if you have feedback, questions or just want to send a fist bump. (insults are welcome too, but only on Mondays)

Have a wonderful week,
Tobias
