Welcome to HiP Media, LLC, a Chicago-based collaboration between Aaron and Jeannie Olson.

Why ‘HiP Media’?

HiP Media refers to the first website we ever started–House in Progress–that we continue to use to chronicle our restoration of a neglected bungalow in Chicago and share the world of amateur home improvement with others.

What does HiP Media do?

Together, Aaron and Jeanne manage several web properties, offer web services, and provide consulting related to online community and web-based learning. Aaron has a background in management and learning technologies. Jeannie has experience as an ethnographer, instructional designer and knowledge management consultant. They leverage their collective skills to design spaces where others can educate and collaborate.

What ‘web properties’ are you talking about?

HiP Media currently publishes two home-related sites: House in Progress and Houseblogs.net. Several other sites will be launching in late 2007 and early 2008.
