Me2.xyz – GoDaddy customer (Australia)
Happy New Year, #GenXYZ! Now that the calendar has once again turned over, you might have a few resolutions made for the upcoming year. One of the most common resolutions is to get healthier and improve fitness, which means fitness coaches and trainers are about to have an influx of new clients. This week’s #WebsiteWednesday, Me2.xyz, is here to help health coaches give their clients the best possible experience.
Me2.xyz, or Me Squared, was created to make the entire process of fitness and health coaching easier for trainers and better for clients. The app allows trainers to create custom nutrition guides for clients to follow, provides real time food tracking so the client can stick the their plan and the trainer can see how well their client is eating, and even allows trainers and clients to identify problematic meal trends together through insights built into the app.
Me Squared improves the client/trainer relationship as well by supporting remote consultations, in app note taking for trainers, chat and support features, and allows health coaches and trainers to stay in touch any time, which helps clients stay on track with their eating and get to their goals faster.
Having been founded just 2 years ago, Me Squared is already achieving notable success, garnering a partnership with Fitness institute Australia and expanding availability to 3 countries (Canada, Australia, and New Zealand) with plans to add more in the near future.
Self improvement is a great goal to have for the New Year, and eating better can be a huge step toward achieving a better overall attitude. By empowering the coaches and trainers who help people make that improvement, Me2.xyz is using their technology to make the world a happier and more fit place.
StilettoMeUp.xyz – GoDaddy customer (United States)
In this week’s #WebsiteWednesday we’re taking another check in on one of our favorite .xyz users, Egreis Gjergjani, and her site StilettoMeUp.xyz. Egreis was one of the first adopters of .xyz all the way back in 2014, and 4 years later StilettoMeUp.xyz is strutting along better than ever.
Egreis is a successful fashion entrepreneur who began StilettoMeUp.xyz as she was preparing for a major life change, her first child. She launched her site to share her story of how she added a growing family into her already impressive scope of focus, and she still keeps her site up to date with advice on balancing work and home life, fashion and style tips, behind the scenes looks at her product events and launches, and more.
Speaking of product launches, Egreis just launched a new clothing line, by egreis, last week. This new venture sees her branching out from her existing children’s clothing line, Itty Bitty Toes, to create clothing for women of all sizes. Egreis gave a look behind the curtain at the hard work and challenges she faced in the buildup to the launch on her blog, which is an inspiring read for any entrepreneur.
In 4 years Egreis’ life has changed many times over, but her .xyz domain has been with her through it all. Her independent and driven spirit combined with her talent and dedication make her a perfect spokesperson for #GenXYZ. While we may not know what Egries has in store next on her journey, we know that she will conquer it with grace and glamour, just as she’s been doing since she started StilettoMeUp.xyz.
Ottia.xyz – eNom customer (United States)
Today’s new technology is completely changing the landscape for many industries, and few have more practical applications than 3D printing. This week’s #WebsiteWednesday, Ottia.xyz, is taking 3D printing technology to new heights and expanding the ways manufacturers can use it.
The Ottia.xyz 3D printing machine stands out from its competition because it isn’t just a 3D printer but rather, as Ottia puts it, “a factory in a box.” Their machine functions as all the tools a manufacturer may need: a 3D printer capable of printing complex designs, a mill to make precise carvings in wood and plastics, a laser engraver for etching and detailing, a paste funnel for unique designs, and a pen for intricate designs that require pens smaller than 0.5in wide, all situated over top of a conveyor belt which allows you to focus on other tasks while Ottia handles the manufacturing work itself.
That’s not all, though, as the Ottia machine’s open source hardware and software allow anyone to customize it to add the feature that will best serve their needs. This forward thinking approach allows Ottia’s machine to start solving problems for your company right away, while giving you peace of mind in knowing that the machine is ready to grow with your needs as your business grows itself.
Though the machine is still a prototype idea in search of support and not yet available on the market, Ottia.xyz has been featured at some of the biggest showcases in the country, including CES, SXSW, and PBS’ Ideastream. The buzz they created at these shows led to them also being featured in an article by Cleveland.com, yet another illustration of the bright future Ottia and its creators have ahead.
It's always great seeing a member of #GenXYZ out in the wild. Check out https://t.co/dQbKczcJ21, The Maker Machine, at #SXSW! pic.twitter.com/ILaV6pUhcr

If you’re ready to follow in their footsteps and get your own idea off the ground, then get started with the .xyz domain you want today.
This week we’re excited to announce partnerships with two organizations whose missions XYZ is proud to support: Urban TXT and Generation Girl. Together with these organizations, we are helping teens and young people make the most of their internet experience and set themselves up for success in the digital world.
Urban TXT is a Los Angeles based youth development program that teaches coding to young men of color who come from low income communities, greatly assisting them in going on to attend college and pursue careers in computer science.
You may remember Urban TXT from their hackathon Hustle N’ Code, which XYZ supported 2 years ago. Since then, Urban TXT has grown to now boast over 1,500 program participants per year, along with a spiffy new hackerspace in which those students can learn, complete with computer monitors donated by XYZ. We will be supporting the Hustle N’ Code hackathon again this year (stay tuned to our social media to follow along) and we look forward to helping them build out their new hackerspace into a bed of innovation and education for young men from south LA to follow their dreams of learning to code.
Generation Girl is XYZ’s newest partner, and one that matches the international reach of .xyz. Generation Girl is a non-profit in Indonesia that aims to inspire young girls to become leaders in the traditionally male-dominated STEM fields.
Through our partnership with Generation Girl, we will support their upcoming Winter Club program and 2019 Summer Club program, and will provide .xyz domains for the young girls enrolled so they can develop their newfound interests and share their innovative ideas with the world. Keep an eye on our social media, because you may see us highlighting sites the girls in Generation Girl’s program have made!
The mission of .xyz has always been, and always will be, to support the next generation of creators, inventors, artists, dreamers, and leaders across the globe. We’re proud to announce these partnerships, introduce you to these organizations, and share in their mission to advance #GenXYZ’s opportunities now and in the future.
