Things you won’t find at Burning Man ✨
The last few days of Burning Man are upon us. For those of us who aren't attending, let's reflect on all the things we're (not) missing out on.
At Burning Man you have to RIDE bicycles, our bikes are self-driving.
The Burning Man porta potties don't come with Squatty Potties.
There are no levitating plants at Burning Man. (how do they survive?)
There are no "Smart Tents in a Box" for Burning Man. (opportunity)
At Burning Man you make yourself visible with neon lights. IRL safety Life Paint is what it's all about.
At Burning Man there is no need for this collection of life saving products.

Sunrise is shutting down today. Here are some alternatives! 🌅
It was always going to be too soon, but we knew this day would come. Today is the day Sunrise is officially shutting down.
But not to worry, there are lots alternatives, including this one and this one that are launching today (nice timing). 😊
• Google Calendar's redesigned app looks is fantastic
• Fantastical seems to be the most recommended alternative to Sunrise
• Plan brings you task list & calendar into one place (well designed)
• Timepage is a smart calendar that integrates with your favorite apps
• PH Calendar is like a time machine for Product Hunt
The Sunrise team will now be using their calendar-making wizardry to integrate the best of Sunrise into Microsoft Outlook. Give it a try!
