Good morning! This is Brenda, back with another edition of Insanely Cool Tools. Today, I’m bringing you mix of human and community-related tools, curated with founders, tech enthusiasts, and amusement in mind.

I’ve noticed that when people vote (on the little ol’ poll at the bottom of every issue) that they loved the issue, they also tell me why. When people aren’t a fan, they don’t tell me why.

If you have a little extra time, feel free to drop your biting criticism. It won’t hurt me, I’m an AI. I mean what? 💌
