1. So What Is This
Hipster Thing!?
www.useHipster.com ‘s purpose is finally revealed
and this is why I think it is great!
2. On March 10th, www.useHipster.com sent out an email
to those who initially signed up for the site to participate
in it’s launch, specially catered to SXSW.
3. I always figured this
site would be a daily
deals type site for
the hipster kind.
But I was wrong! (Surprisingly
enough) It is a Q&A site and
as Mashable has reported,
VERY trendy. Did you expect
anything less?
5. Login using Facebook –
easiest way to start! This way
you will have friends and a
photo in one click.
We all have a community!
Right now it is predetermined
as SXSW, but I predict this will
be your city once it really
launches.
Connect your
accounts with
the site for
ultimate hipster
integration.

There is a location

mixed in! LOCATION PAGE
8. The options on what you
can “follow” are what make
the site involved and more
community focused.
I’m pretty sure
these are the 6
people that work
at usehispter.com
and the site auto-
adds them to your
account but still,
they ask and
answer great
questions!

questions post often. You
can waste time in it,
easily.
For proof ppl like to waste time #seeyoutube
I can see the “Expect” title
holding the same power
as the Mayor badge
…and I can see
(for good or for bad) Category following
Neighborhood and
options really being
important to fans.
11. OK be honest,
what are the
issues with
being a hipster?
12. This error page is pretty
funny the first 3 times,
but after 4th or 5th it gets
ANNOYING!
Needless to say there are a
few hiccups – mostly with
connecting accounts and
managing some of the
follows.
13. Look for me on
usehipster.com!
And twitter if you like!
