Online communication has become an integral part of modern life. Statista says that by the second quarter of 2025, about 94.1% of internet users around the globe are on chats and messengers each month. Taknnect is a platform that helps meet this need, giving a safe and easy space for people everywhere to connect in real ways. This guide covers how to log in, set up your profile, and recover your password—all you need to get started easily. Photo by freepic.diller, Freepik What is Taknnect and Why It’s Worth Trying Taknnect is a global online communication platform designed for those seeking real, meaningful interactions rather than superficial scrolling. The service has many verified profiles, so everyone can find people with shared interests, regardless of country or cultural background. The platform is built on two key principles — simplicity and security. Taknnect’s interface is concise and clear, making it accessible both for experienced users and for those just starting to navigate digital communication. A particular advantage is the serious approach to privacy. Profile data and photos are not indexed by search engines, and an account can be completely deleted without a trace by contacting support. This creates a comfortable environment for communication, where users feel safe and can focus on meaningful conversations. How to Register: Taknnect Sign Up Step by Step Getting started on the platform can take just a few minutes. The Taknnect sign-up process is designed to be as clear as possible. Step 1: Go to the Platform You need to visit the official website and find the registration button on the homepage. The interface immediately offers clear options both for new users and for those who already have an account.

Chat and “Let's Talk”: the chat feature is supplemented by “Let's Talk,” which offers ready-made phrases to start a conversation. This is especially convenient for those who want to connect but do not know how to begin. Mails for longer and more thoughtful messages, the Mails feature allows sending extended texts and photos.

Each year during the tennis season, there is one event that consistently brings together two worlds that I love: tennis and food. And Taste of Tennis does exactly that. Players, chefs, and fans gather in the same space, sharing dishes from well-known restaurants while talking tennis. It doesn't feel like your traditional sports event, but more like a celebration of talent. Over the years, Taste of Tennis has expanded across several cities including Dallas, Indian Wells, New York City, and in the Magic City—Miami. The concept remains simple: connect fans with players in a relaxed setting while highlighting the food scene of each host city.  Curious about how the event has grown and what keeps it evolving, I sat down with Penny Lerner, founder and CEO of AYS World, a sports marketing company that connects brands with the global tennis community. We talked about the origins of the event, the realities of producing large-scale sports experiences, and the personal habits that help her stay focused. INTERVIEW MARKIN ABRAS | PHOTOS COURTESY OF AYS WORLD  Miami Living: Before digging into Taste of Tennis , I'm wondering if you have any daily rituals. Penny Lerner: Walking. I take a 30-minute walk every day to and from work. I find that it helps me prepare for the day and get myself in a positive mindset. On the walk home, I am able to decompress, process everything that happened over the course of the day, and prepare for the most important job I have: being a mom! Miami Living: And when things get busy, what helps you reset and recharge besides walking? Penny Lerner: Meditation. When my mind is racing and my body is exhausted, I find that intentionally slowing everything down really helps me refocus. Meditation takes many forms, from actual classes I attend to simply taking a quiet moment at my desk to refresh and revitalize. Miami Living: Taste of Tennis recently celebrated its 25th anniversary. Looking back, what has always been non-negotiable for you as the event has grown? Penny Lerner: The guest experience has always been first and foremost to us. I have been to so many events that sacrifice the guest experience to save a few dollars. We look at things differently. We believe that if you create an uncompromising guest experience, you will reap the long-term benefits. You will have passionate, loyal fans for life. To me, that is far more valuable. Miami Living: You lead a woman-owned agency in a traditionally male-dominated sports industry. How has that shaped the way you lead and approach partnerships? Penny Lerner: Early in my career, a male counterpart referred to me in a meeting as “the girl who runs events.” Of course, my role was much more complex and important than that. Initially, I felt devalued. But after a few days, I changed my mindset and used this as further motivation to succeed. From that moment on, I knew that to be taken seriously, I needed to be direct, assertive, and confident. I believe that this unfortunate incident fueled my desire to succeed and has played an integral role in how I am currently perceived throughout the industry. Miami Living: As CEO, is there a leadership habit you had to unlearn over time? Penny Lerner: Early in my career, I struggled with patience. My employees would argue that I still do! I have learned that leading is teaching, and it takes time and patience. While I still have high expectations and deadlines, I now take the time to thoroughly explain things and share my expertise so my team has all the tools and information they need to succeed. Miami Living: What are some of the behind-the-scenes challenges people may not realize when putting together an event like Taste of Tennis ? Penny Lerner: The most challenging part of an event to me is the group dynamic. You have to make sure the behind-the-scenes team trusts each other, makes decisions based on that trust, and can execute with understanding and leadership when in-the-moment decisions need to be made. I am also a strong believer in sharing as much information as possible so nothing is left unclear or open to interpretation. Miami Living: Fans always wonder how players get involved. What goes into getting tennis players to attend Taste of Tennis ? Penny Lerner: If I had a quarter for every time this question was asked, I would be retired by now! Our unique relationships with players and agents is the “secret sauce” that makes the Taste of Tennis recipe work. Regarding the players that attend, all are welcome. Taste of Tennis events feature players of all types from top-ranked WTA and ATP singles and doubles players, to legends and rising collegiate stars. We welcome everyone. Miami Living: I don't have a quarter with me, but I will owe you one! Taste of Tennis now takes place in multiple cities around the world. What makes a city the right fit for the event? Penny Lerner: There are multiple considerations when choosing where to take Taste of Tennis . Of course, we look for key markets where tennis tournaments take place. As with any event, we carefully consider logistics, player schedules, expenses, and partners. The best part about the tennis schedule is that many events take place in amazing cities with passionate fans and stellar culinary scenes, which means our events work in many markets. Miami Living: On a more personal note, what’s something about you that people might be surprised to learn? Penny Lerner: I am an awful tennis player. I try, I have taken lessons, played in clinics, been coached by the best in the business, and played with some of the greatest players in the world. But for some reason, it just doesn’t click as it should. Miami Living: And for those looking into getting into sports marketing, what advice would you give them? Penny Lerner: Consider every opportunity that comes your way. And be gracious. You never know who you are working with, who they know, or where it will lead you. Some of my biggest successes happened when I wasn’t expecting or anticipating them. They happened simply because I was open and excited about a new opportunity. Miami Living: Finally, looking ahead, what excites you most about the future of Taste of Tennis ? Penny Lerner: The event evolves each year. If we hope to remain one of tennis’ leading off-the-court events, we have to keep it fresh and introduce bold new elements. That excites me. Perhaps the most exciting thing about Taste of Tennis is that we own it and can adjust the experience however we like to meet the demands of fans and sponsors. We have produced the event at exhibitions, in suites at tournaments, we created a Taste of Tennis Food Truck Tour, and have produced the event virtually. We have some new exciting elements for Taste of Tennis New York that will be announced soon. The challenge of evolving and growing the brand is really what excites me the most.

Alex de Minaur Amanda Anisimova Ben Shelton Coco Gauff Frances Tiafoe Jakub Mensik Jannik Sinner Karen Khachanov Paula Badosa Tatjana Maria Taylor Fritz Fun facts about the Miami Open Tennis in an NFL House The Miami Open is played inside Hard Rock Stadium, home of the Miami Dolphins. It’s one of the few tournaments in the world staged inside a football stadium, giving it a dramatic, big-event feel under the lights. The “Sunshine Double” Dream Miami follows the Indian Wells Masters on the calendar. Winning both events back to back is called the Sunshine Double, one of the toughest feats in tennis due to the quick turnaround and different court conditions. Djokovic’s Miami Love Story Novak Djokovic holds a record six men’s singles titles in Miami, tying him among the most successful champions in tournament history. Serena’s South Florida Reign Serena Williams also won the tournament six times, making Miami one of her most dominant stops on tour. A Latin American Home Crowd Thanks to Miami’s multicultural fan base, players from Argentina, Brazil, Spain, and across Latin America often enjoy near-home support, creating some of the loudest atmospheres outside a Grand Slam. More Than Tennis The event blends pro tennis with music, art, celebrity sightings, and luxury hospitality. It feels closer to a cultural festival than a traditional tournament. It Wasn’t Always in Miami Gardens Before moving in 2019, the tournament spent over three decades at Crandon Park in Key Biscayne, where ocean breezes were as much a factor as forehands. Born in the 1980s Boom The tournament was founded in 1985 by former player Butch Buchholz, who envisioned creating a Grand Slam–level event in the U.S. outside the US Open. Night Tennis Hits Different With South Florida humidity and packed evening sessions, night matches often produce dramatic momentum swings and electric crowd reactions. Equal Prize Money Like the Grand Slams, the Miami Open awards equal prize money to men and women, reinforcing its status as one of the most prestigious combined events in the sport. By ML Staff.

Nearly five decades after its founding, Miami-based builder Us Construction  marked a new chapter with the unveiling of its refreshed brand identity during a private event at Bouchon Bistro on February 19. The gathering brought together clients, partners and industry leaders to celebrate the company’s transition from “U.S. Construction” to “Us Construction,” a change that reflects the collaborative philosophy that has long shaped the firm’s work across South Florida. The evening also introduced the company’s new tagline: “Together. The Power of Us.” Founded in 1977, the family-owned contractor has spent nearly 50 years building hospitality, aviation and entertainment destinations throughout Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties. Company leaders say the updated name better captures the culture of teamwork and partnership that has defined the organization since its early days. “This rebrand reflects who we have always been at our core,” said Rafael Reyes, who has led the company since 2004. “The ‘Us’ represents our clients, our teams, and our partners. When we build together, we build better. That’s the power of Us.” Hosting the event at Bouchon Bistro by Michelin-starred chef Thomas Keller was an intentional choice. The Coral Gables restaurant is one of the firm’s signature projects and reflects the kind of precision and collaboration that the company hopes to emphasize through its new brand. Throughout the evening, guests experienced the new identity through immersive design elements highlighting projects the company has completed across the region. Among them are hospitality venues like Giselle Miami  and restaurants at Miami Worldcenter , as well as more than 60 projects at Miami International Airport. The rebrand comes at a time of growth for the company, which recently doubled its revenue and is expanding its portfolio while continuing to focus on hospitality and aviation projects throughout South Florida. With leadership spanning multiple generations of the Reyes family, Us Construction says the new identity is less about change and more about clarity to reinforce the collaborative spirit that has defined the company from the beginning.

Legacy Harbour Marina  will officially reopen in May 2026, following a complete redevelopment of its 13-acre downtown Fort Myers waterfront property. The approximately $15 million waterfront transformation includes the marina, harbor master building and on-site amenities. Located along the Caloosahatchee River at 2044 West First Street, the marina was extensively damaged during  Hurricane Ian in 2022  and has since undergone a full rebuild. The rebuilt facility features 131 slips ranging from 40 to 150 feet, advanced dock systems, enhanced utility services and modern marine infrastructure designed for long-term coastal durability and performance.   The new dock system features Bellingham Marine’s Unifloat® concrete wave attenuation system supported by 70-foot steel piles. Interior slips utilize aluminum frame dock systems with synthetic decking engineered for durability in Florida’s marine environment. Slips are equipped with potable water, in-slip pump-out, fire suppression, fiberglass dock boxes and both single- and three-phase power.   “This marina has long served as a homeport for boaters traveling Florida’s west coast,” said Rick Budd, CEO of AIRN Management. “The May 2026 reopening represents a significant reinvestment in Fort Myers’ waterfront and a long-term commitment to the local boating community.”   Legacy Harbour offers direct Gulf access via the Caloosahatchee River and is within walking distance of Fort Myers’ River District, providing convenient access to downtown restaurants, retail and services.   At this time, prospective boaters may join the marina’s waitlist via Dockwa as management prepares for opening. Slip reservations will formally launch once a definitive opening date is confirmed.   Transient slips will be available upon reopening, with capacity determined by annual and monthly occupancy.   Legacy Harbour Marina has engaged  Coastal Marina Management  as its Management Partner. Coastal Marina Management will oversee day-to-day marina operations, dock staff management and customer service.   The redevelopment began in early 2025 and includes modernized utilities, structural enhancements and infrastructure improvements designed for long-term durability. In addition, the marina will implement an updated hurricane preparedness and response plan as part of its enhanced storm-resiliency measures.   Spanning approximately 13 acres of riverfront, Legacy Harbour offers direct access to the Gulf of Mexico and walkable proximity to downtown Fort Myers. The reopening restores critical slip capacity to the region’s waterfront inventory following Hurricane Ian and reinforces the River District as an active marine corridor.   Boaters may request a slip by visiting fmlegacyharbour.com and selecting “ Request a Slip ,” or by reserving directly through  Dockwa . The newly updated website also provides detailed information on slip sizes, marina amenities, redevelopment highlights and project updates as Legacy Harbour returns to service May 1.

Atlantic Village in Hallandale Beach is entering a new era. The mixed-use development, which opened its first phase back in 2019, has been steadily building out its tenant mix, and the latest additions signal a clear ambition: become the go-to destination for dining, wellness, and entertainment in South Broward. The Hallandale Beach indoor-outdoor center recently announced it is adding new restaurants, wellness concepts, and an indoor golf facility to a growing lineup boasting some of the best retailers, restaurants, fitness brands, and more. Grupo Eco, the Mexico-based developer behind the project, has overseen four phases of growth, capping it off with a 12-story Class A office tower completed in 2025. At the same time, the restaurants, wellness studios, and experience-driven concepts at ground level are helping shape the development’s day-to-day energy. Standout restaurants have already opened. Murano by Ferraro brings modern Italian fine dining to the property, with a coastal-driven menu, premium cuts, and an extensive wine and cocktail program. The Wagyu House by Meat N' Bone is another major opening for the center. The brand focuses on quality sourcing, and this concept doubles down on that with Japanese, Australian, and domestic wagyu cuts. Executive Chef Chucho Rojas, who trained in Michelin-starred kitchens across Europe, brings the technique to match the product. It's one of the more serious steakhouse openings in the region this year. OakBerry, the global açaí brand with hundreds of locations across 45+ countries, is also opening at the center. Their customizable superfood bowls and smoothies are a natural fit for the health-conscious crowd the development has been drawing in. Coming soon Tee Box arrives at the end of March 2026 as an indoor golf development facility with high-end simulators, on-demand coaching, performance tracking, and a dedicated fitness center. Designed as a year-round training environment, the concept focuses on helping golfers refine their game through data-driven technology and instruction. Later in the summer, The Lab Vitality Club opens with a specific focus: adults over 50 who want to train smart, move pain-free, and build lasting strength. The concept blends strength training, recovery, and health coaching in a member-first environment. Why It's Worth the Trip Atlantic Village sits near Gulfstream Park and Shell Bay, home to one of the most exclusive golf courses in the country. Also within close proximity are both major international airports, the Brightline station, and Hollywood Beach Boardwalk. These new openings join an existing lineup that includes Crema Gourmet, Club Pilates, and 54D, among others. With over 308,000 square feet of new and upcoming tenants in the pipeline, Atlantic Village is no longer just a neighborhood retail center. It's becoming a real destination. By ML Staff.
