Apple gives MacBook some love with new leather sleeves

Apple's 12-inch Retina MacBook may not get a lot of mention but it still remains one of the most impressive products in the Mac roster as a full-featured notebook Mac with the most portable form factor. Apple just a released some tasty new leather sleeves to help protect the sleek laptop. Available in Midnight Blue and Saddle Brown, the Leather Sleeve,  "is crafted from high-quality French leather with a soft microfibre lining. The unique style of the sleeve allows you to charge your 12-inch MacBook while keeping it protected," Apple's store website says.

Seeing as my MacBook is my go-to travel computer (and I do see a lot of them in airport lounges and in planes), a bespoke leather case might just be the best companion for this notebook. Price in Canada is $179.00.

Spotify and Netflix help you find your ‘Stranger Things’ music match

Eleven's mix is an eclectic mix of Lorde, Patti Smith, Madonna, The Runaways, and so much more.

Music is as much a big part of a good show or movie as every other component of it. And so, this new marketing campaign between Netflix and Spotify helps us embody what’s going on in Hawkins, Indiana a.k.a. the setting for Stranger Things 2. The gang is back and this time we get to learn a bit about their musical influences through character playlists of 13 of the leads, including Mike, Hopper, Jonathan, Eleven, Dustin, Joyce, Nancy, and even the Demogorgon itself. You can discover your music match through spotify-strangerthings.com. If you share your playlist on social media, watch your Spotify screen rotate and bring you to The Upside Down, at least within the app.

Google Home lets you speak to Stranger Things characters in new audio game

One way Netflix and Google are marketing the newest season of Stranger Things is through a new audio game you can play on Google Home. The trigger word to start playing the game is “Ok Google, talk to Dustin from Stranger Things” and then you’re magically transported to 1984 and talking to Dustin Henderson in Hawkins, Indiana. The game will also have you interacting with other characters in the new season of the show. You might need to binge-watch the show first before playing the game, unless you’re okay with getting spoiled.
