Inspired by Uses This, the tools, services, and techniques I’m using to get things done

Hardware

  • MacBook Pro (Space Grey, 15-inch, 2018): Work computer provided by Go-Jek. Use it as my personal device too ;)

  • One Plus 5: The best bang for the buck

  • Sony WH-1000XM3: Best noise cancelling headphones out there in 20-30K INR price range

  • Kindle Paperwhite (Wi-fi model): I bought it in 2015. It is probably my most prized possession

  • Apple iPad (Wi-Fi, 32GB): I spent months agonising over whether to buy it or not. It has turned out to be money well spent. Super helpful for creating rough mocks & also take notes during meetings

  • Apple Pencil: Bought it along with with my iPad. It has been a life changer. Super helpful to create handwritten notes & also draw on Procreate (when you are in the mood for it)

  • Gizga Cable Organiser Manager: Organizing and concealing all types of cables

  • Sony PS4 Slim: Only to play FIFA 19 :)

  • Mika Study Chair: Worth the price

Software

On Laptop

  • Sketch: Got a license thanks to Go-Jek. Fulfils all my prototyping needs (also when I need to make memes)

  • Atom: Typing this on Atom. I like Sublime Editor too

  • Google Chrome: My primary browser. Bookmark Manager says I have got 6000+ bookmarks there. I use AdblockPlus to stop the annoying Youtube ads

  • Microsoft Office Suite: Can’t live without Excel as a Product Manager

  • Slack: For Office Communication

  • Zoom: Best Video Conferencing tool out there. Go-Jek runs on Zoom

On iPad

  • iBooks: To read epubs on my iPad when I am bored of reading on my Phone

  • Notes: To take handwritten notes using my Apple Pencil during meetings

  • Procreate: The only software I did not feel bad paying for
