Welcome to iSPY!

Jan 10 2011 in Blog, Features by Tim Adkins (admin)

We’re all new and just for you in 2011! Take a look around, you’ll find so much more than just a magazine.

Custom Profile

You can create your own profile which will allow you to talk to others in Washtenaw County, upload photos and your event for FREE, that’ll post to our Around YOU calendar and you can even earn points! Points will be added for various activity on the site. We’ll have monthly promotions and contest for point leaders, so you’ll get free stuff just for joining our community! This is your iSPY magazine, you help us make it what it’ll become.

@replies + #hashtags

When you leave a status update you can use “@” followed by a user’s name when your talking to someone and they’ll be notified that you mentioned them. Use “#” to trend a topic or venue and see everyone who’s talking about that subject. For example, if you put a status: “Excited for the show tonight at #woodruffs.” #woodruffs will become a hyperlink you can click on to see who else is talking about it! Both are similar to how Twitter works. Enjoy.
