What kinds of hangouts/restaurants/neighborhoods would I find eclectic, liberal, hipster-types?

I am not familiar with the area, but what I would do is look for any band gig's going on in the area, you might get lucky, Austin has a great music scene, so if your looking for a hipster crowded, go where the music is, there's no shortage

Austin is a completely liberal city unlike any else in Texas. Nothing at all like San Antonio.

There is nothing but hipsters it seems at times :) The "Soco" (South congress) area, near the university... places like Spider House, Crown and Anchor.

Austin has a huge number of Facebook and Twitter users, mostly iPhone ;)
