    Perhaps they're cultivating an appeal to a demographic who's sick of business as beige and natty usual. Pity if the suits in midtown doubt the strategy, but based on a quick and dirty survey of everyone currently in my apartment (me), it's a 100% home run for Google. For all we know, the site was developed in proper Queen's English, and marketing came along later to mangle it for that shoestring/indie/DIY atmosphere.

    I admit this doesn't explain why they chose to represent "shoestrting/indie/DIY" with redneck speak like "anyways." Folk is trendy, I guess.
