Omakase: The CoolTools Podcast Edition

A few weeks ago, I had a chance to converse with one my heroes, (philosopher, author, and journalist) Kevin Kelly and his partner in Cool Tools, Mark Frauenfelder, part of the Boing Boing crew. They asked me about four tools I love and why. I will recount my picks, but you have to listen to the podcast for my reasons.

• TWSBI Diamond 580 Fountain Pen
• Muji Organic Cotton Mix-Pile Sneaker-In Socks
• Dsptch Heavy Braided Camera Strap
• Corpus Natural Deodorant Sticks. I am biased towards Cedar Flora.

In case you were wondering, Omakase is a selection of products, services, applications, and art, that I have enjoyed. These are not reviews. Instead, they are my recommendations. I don’t mind endorsing these products because they are of high quality, and in general have been a positive addition to my life.
