Simulscribe by Josh Rubin
Simulscribe is a voicemail service that transcribes your messages and sends them to you in an email. It's one of those really simple, super convenient solutions that is especially helpful in situations where you can't pick up the phone to listen to messages—especially for mobile email users. Usually the messages come through quite accurately, but from time to time there's a miscommunication. Fortunately each message is delivered with an audio file in case you want to listen from your computer. There is an option to have your messages delivered by SMS, but that gets a bit messy for long, rambling messages. And of course, you can still just call in to listen to your voicemail.

Caffeine Finder
Everyone knows there's a significant overlap between the information junkies and caffeine cravers.

ShifD
Simple tools are always the best way to accomplish simple tasks. Such is the case with my new favorite multi-platform app, Shifd. It's basically a really easy way to capture and view notes, places and links from your mobile phone, web browser or computer desktop. I most often use it for mobile notes-to-self; whenever I need to capture a name, place, task or thought...

Six Bike Baskets
If you've ever walked through Manhattan's Union Square green market early in the morning, you might have noticed the jury-rigged bicycles chefs use to transport their produce purchases. Cycling city streets with a cargo platform, though, is not a task to be taken lightly. With spring just around the corner and nature's bounty soon spilling into markets nationwide, we thought a timely round-up of...

Five Bike Helmets
Unless you’re one of those obsessives who likes to get geared up in full racing attire for a few laps around town, you aren’t keen on wearing a helmet that looks like the nose of a fighter jet. Some city cyclists forego wearing helmets simply because they aren't well designed and look dorky. We’ve scoured the web and sourced a few that will save...

Five Better Bike Racks
The bike rack is one of those urban features woefully in need of a redesign. Thanks to NYC DOT and Cooper-Hewitt, who joined forces in creating the City Racks Design Competition, New York just might continue to lead the way in making cities more bike-friendly. As many people have noticed, the city has been making great advances on behalf of the cyclist, adding miles...

CH x Puma Eight-Speed Urban Mobility Bike and World Bicycle Relief
When Puma recently sent us one of their Vexed Generation and Biomega-designed eight-speed urban mobility bicycles, we thought we'd do a little something special with it. We tasked in-house creative Seth Brau with customizing the bike and he went at it, covering the bike with shapes and patterns in a scheme of primary colors. The upshot is a little tribal, a little crazy and...
