JetBlue, Going Pair Up to Hustle Emo Hipsters Coast to Coast

Going.com - Profile Page.jpg

To celebrate its new service from SFO, JetBlue leaps on the social networking bandwagon and pairs up with Going.com to get its schmooze on with young, upwardly-mobile scenesters, kind of like some other people we know.

Going.com, formerly HeyLetsGo.com, is another one of those “fresh takes” on that same photo-whoring friends-hoarding thing. To make Going.com’s demo feel super-awesome, and hopefully to bring foot traffic through JetBlue’s doors, the companies are hosting a three-city concert featuring The Teddy Bears and Albert Hammond, Jr. of The Strokes.

Winners of some contest will be shuttled through San Francisco, New York and Boston for all the indie fun and games.

We’d totally join but can’t seem to find our horn-rimmed glasses anywhere. They’re probably still in the bathtub from the last time we tried cutting for attention. Oh Albert H, if only you knew we were alive.

Someone who skips the seasonal décor every year may not be indifferent to the holiday itself, they may simply be opting out of a display aimed more at whoever walks past than at anyone who actually lives there.
