Urbisunderground is the communal web site set up by/for the alternative* teenagers who hang around outside Urbis in Manchester.
Building and maintaining it seems to be a semi official youth work project, rather than self organised, but the web presence certainly followed from the real world meeting place rather than the other way round.
They talk about being "on Urbis" - by which they mean being at the real world place, not the web site: "there was a weird atmosphere on Urbis last night" - in the same way they would talk about being on messenger or on My Space.
*"emo" may no longer be the correct terminology.
