Meta-Hip

Beyond hip. The next phase in the History of Cool (time for John Leland to add a chapter to his book) Non-mainstream culture (and it's trends) will be heading to a more organic, fluid phase. Culture is taking a swing away from the the image conscious, cooler-than-thou attitude of the Hipster sect, moving into a cycle where simplicity, inner pursuits and brightness are the nexus.

Culture runs in cycles and the next phase will feature a meta-hip attitude.

mohemian

Modern day bohmeians. Living on the Fringe, but connected via obssession with Technolgy. Similar to former bohemians, beats and hippies - concerned with social issues, Indie culture and creativity, but connect more on-line then at coffee shops, etc.

Chicago's West Town is crawling with Mohemians - grungy style, I-pod in hand, Cellie in pocket, walking with notebook to coffee shop to cop free wi-fi to chat with friends and download some obscure English rock.

Web 2.5

The time period between mid-2007 and late 2009 when Web2.0 tatics, platforms and ideals were waning, but Web 3.0 had not yet matured or went mainstream.

Both Pandora and Muxtape were shut down in Aug. '08 by the government. A sad casualty of Web 2.5.

Web 2.5

The point of contemporary online usage between Web 2.0 and 3.0. Marked by greater integration, mobility and ubiquitous use. Also problems with adapting to newer methods while holding on to past ones.

All my social media post automatically go to my Twitter feed. Web 2.5 example at work.

Frat Row

A section of Chicago's Wrigleyville (Clark St. between Addison and Roscoe) that is populated with bars filled with older college students and recently graduated preppy Twenty-somethings. Being so close to Wrigley Field, sadly, only makes the Frat atmosphere worse.

On a recent trip to Wrigleyville in Chicago the group felt very out of place along Frat Row. It was like college all over again.
