Find your new favorite thing

Why isn’t there a website for that? Well, there probably is and One Useful Thing is here to tell you about it.

Every week I’ll send you a recommendation of something well-designed and incredibly helpful that’s sure to solve a problem for you and make your life better (yes, really!).

Here are some of our most popular issues, for example:

The next time your friends ask “Why isn’t there a website for that?!” You can say, “There is!”

What readers say

“Rarely do I gush, but Keith Monaghan is killing it with One Useful Thing.”

No advertisements, no affiliate links

Some of my favorite newsletters make money from sponsors and Amazon affiliate links, which is great. I want them to stay around. But One Useful Thing is different. It’s full of genuine personal recommendations from me and our readers, no strings attached. I like it that way. I hope you do, too. Maybe there will be a One Useful Thing book? Special paid-only issues? A do-it-yourself tattoo kit of our logo? It’s too early to say, but if there ever is, readers will be the first to know. (Alas, probably not the tattoo thing.)

Before that I spent over a decade creating marketing and branding campaigns for technology companies.
