How has the internet affected modern society and the way we live our lives?

And what exactly do hipsters have to do with anything?

As our online identities have become increasingly important and the era of ever-rising individuality has given birth to the modern hipster, so too have we changed the fundamental way we go about our daily lives. The Hipster Effect was dedicated to tracking those changes, but has since been shut down.

thehipstereffect.com was written and operated by Sophy Bot, author of “The Hipster Effect: How the Rising Tide of Individuality is Changing Everything We Know about Life, Work and the Pursuit of Happiness”.

Contact Bot at sophybot [at] thehipstereffect.com for more information.

 

 

 

Sophy Bot spoke about the hipster effect, identity and personal transformation at the inaugural TEDx Gramercy event in March 2012. Bot is currently available for speaking engagements in the US and worldwide, with a focus on hipsters, identity, self-expression, internet culture and other relevant topics.
