The New Urbancougar.com

Since urbancougar.com was first introduced in 2004, the cougar movement has grown steadily and gained more and more mainstream attention. Of late it’s reached something of a fever pitch with major news and entertainment media commenting on the phenomenon on an almost daily basis. So what better time to unleash Urbancougar 2.0 on the world!

We’ve worked very hard over the last year to make urbancougar.com more interactive and entertaining and are happy to give you this exclusive look into our new beta. Over the next few weeks we’ll be fine-tuning the new design and content, so bear with us if there are a few kinks. But don't hesitate to let us know what you think!



A quick overview of some of our new interactive features:

> Join our community and create your own unique user profile

> Rate and comment on articles, photos, stories, dens and your friends’ profiles

> Easily submit new photos of yourself and the cougars and cubs you’ve spotted in the wild

> Quickly add stories and new dens

> Tag your favorite articles, photos, stories and dens

> Easily share content with friends via email or by posting to Facebook pages, Digg and other sites

> Subscribe to our RSS feed (at the bottom of the page) to ensure you never miss new content


In addition to these great features, we also have a number of new content areas to complement the content you’ve come to know and love already. Here’s a little more in-depth look at each section:

The Lifestyle
In this new section we will comment on all that’s happening in the cougar community. Whether it’s the latest Hollywood romance, dating or style tips, or important cultural events, if it’s cougar-related (even remotely) we’ll give our take… and hopefully hear yours in the comments.  Oh, and be sure to read, "Cougar 101: A Typical Conversation" for a little background on just what a cougar is!

Dens
Urbancougar.com wouldn’t be urbancougar.com without the useful cougar dens section highlighting the nation’s top spots for the hunter and the hunted. It’s never been easier for you to submit locations and now we’ve added Yahoo maps and hot links to get the lowdown!

Community
Here at UC, we’re all about encouraging the lifestyle and our new community section is all about helping you live it. Full of great social networking features, your Community profile lets you show off your cougar style!

Urbancougar of the Month
And of course urbancougar.com wouldn’t be complete without our lovely Urbancougars of the Month.


We're really excited. Hope you are too! And please allow us to take a moment to thank our good friends at Refresh Studios who helped us redevelop urbancougar.com and Mr. Grey, who redesigned our logo.
