Hello ?
It’s Friday again.
I want to share a newsletter I’ve been loving over the last few weeks…. Album Daily.
Does what it says – get an album recommended in your inbox every day (although you can get a weekly version too).
Not exactly startup related but helping with my downtime and broadening my music horizons.
I’ve featured it on Inbox Stash because it’s awesome. And I’m sponsoring their newsletter for a couple of weeks ?
Moving on…. did you know that you can get Basecamp for free?
Last week’s most clicked tool was FakeClients. Way, way, way out in front.
On to this week’s tools and articles…

MageTools: DevTools Reimagined
Browser extension (Chrome only right now) for inspecting elements on the page. Really nice and smooth to use.
It’s free but not sure for how long. You need to enter the discount code at checkout and the request for credit card details will go away.
Damn I could have done with this when I was trying to figure out my CSS on Inbox Stash ?

Rhino NDA
Simple as it gets. If you really need an NDA but not quite enough to get a lawyer, this might be the answer. Plug in some basic details and voila, there’s an NDA ready for you to paste into your e-signature software or go old school and print and sign.

Useful PDF
Speaking of e-signatures Useful PDF is another great tool to check out. It lets you easily create documents and then use your e-signature to sign them. The tool gives you two options when it comes to creating your signature. You can either draw one or just type it out. The tool has a lot of different templates ready to use, including power of attorney, living wills, rental forms, and a lot more.
