🥩 It's steak, but not as we know it. An Israeli company has created the "world’s first slaughter-free ribeye" using real cow cells and 3D printing technology. Aleph Farms' technique involves "bio-printing" living cells, complete with fat and muscle incubated to mimic the textures of a real steak. The firm says it has the same attributes as "a delicious, tender, juicy ribeye steak you’d buy from the butcher." And it's not stopping here. Link in bio for more. 📷: Aleph Farms

I'm thinking about buying the .com domain for my town (15,000 people). Worth the effort to make it into something for small business owners?

I'm thinking about buying the .com domain for my town (15,000 people). Worth the effort to make it into something? It is going pretty cheap (<$200). 15,000 in town but a lot of small business... and lots on Facebook. I was thinking I could start a small business directory. Asking business owners say $5 per month to have a listing? Decent beer money if a few sign up. All I have going for me is the .com domain authority... and I could write some nice articles for tourists on the site. Not sure what else the biz owner could get... maybe a dedicated article or something. What do you think - worth the effort? Should I try something else with the domain? Or should I not even bother buying the domain the first place. Ideas, experiences and feedback all very much appreciated.

If you have Virtual Assistants work for you, this is a tool that you should use to track their productivity

Because of Pandemic most of the people in my organization are working from Home and I was using a solution like Hubstaff(Paying them close to $50/Month) to track the employees productivity. But I recently came across an app that called TopTracker that provides the same functionality completely FREE. Here are the features I found the most useful: * Takes Screenshots At Regular Interval and Upload it * Shows the employee productivity over period of time * Native apps for Android and Windows along with a Chrome Plugin Hope you guys find the app useful.

Are websites that require users to signup annoying?

I have a startup i have been working on for some months now. I have always found it annoying when a website requires me to signup before i can even see any of the features. Now i am finding myself needing to require users to signup before they access my site but i dont want to give the majority of my users the same annoying feeling i get when i encounter a site requiring signup. Would people find this an irritating feature of my site?
