Magic Cat Academy

Google has brought back Magic Cat Academy, its classic Halloween Doodle mini-game, which debuted in 2016 and returned in 2020.

Until EOD, you can visit the Google homepage on web and mobile to join Momo the Cat on a journey through Earth’s atmosphere.

This year, you’ll have to battle through bedsheet ghosts, frickin’ bats, and spooky spiders without losing all five of your cat lives.

And yes, there is a real Momo cat who inspired the cartoon. :’)

Quill

You know when you’re really jamming in your workflow and your brain is working faster than your cursor?

It would be nice to have a clipboard where all your copied text lives. Copied text leads to ideas!

That’s what Quill is. Access and manage a universal, searchable clipboard history across your Apple devices so you never lose another snippet—or idea—again.

Blaze

Can’t afford a freelancer at the moment? Blaze can float ya.

Based on your website and IG handle, Blaze detects your brand’s colors, fonts, and vibes to recreate 100+ types of visual content for you.

We’re talking Instagram stories, TikTok thumbnails, blogs, Pinterest posts, YouTube covers, whatever. Blaze can even schedule, post, remix, and repurpose content for you.

Plus, it has the best landing page we’ve seen in a while.

Quick, tell your designers!

Burnout Buddy

Marketers know the double-edged sword of social media better than anyone else. It’s hard to stay off the feeds. What should be a brain-break from intense focus is probably just draining you even more with addictive algorithms.

Get more stuff done—but more importantly, give your brain a break—with a blocker app.

Burnout Buddy helps reduce your screen and set boundaries with a blocking mechanism that works for you—by schedule, daily limit, focus-based, and more. It’s free to use and no account necessary.
