Notion Faces—Get Your Own Notion Avatar

Hey — it’s Rames

When I was a kid, my dream job was to be a “beach tester.” That was the ultimate goal. Now, as a digital nomad and surfer, I feel like I’m as close as I’ll ever get to making that dream come true. The sad part is that it’s not my dream job anymore. Still, I think my 6-year-old self would be proud.

3 Tips / Updates

1/ Notion Faces

New Year, New You! Notion just dropped Notion Faces last week, a free tool that lets you create your own Notion avatar. It's super easy to use, and shows your involvement in the Notion community.

Even Snoop Dogg made his own avatar 🤯

2/ Notion Forms Live in Super

Great news for Super users—Notion Forms now works seamlessly with your hosted site! It's the perfect time to add a contact form or project request form to your website.

3/ Multi-Timezones in Notion Calendar

Did you know you can display multiple time zones in your Notion Calendar? Living in Sri Lanka and working with France, I keep both time zones visible to create new events more easily (Sri Lanka, like India, uses GMT+5:30—those half-hour time zones can be tricky 😅).

To add: Press cmd/ctrl + K (to open the command center) → type "timezone" → select "Show additional timezones" → pick the time zone to add

1/ Notion Awards 2024
