If you’re not familiar with Kickstarter, you should be. It’s a fantastic way to get your pet project off the ground without pounding the pavements looking for investors.
Well, they just reached one million backers and one hundred million dollars pledged.
Interesting stuff out there, including projects like TikTok, the svelte iPod Nano watchband which started as a Kickstarter project, the Robocop statue in Detroit and hordes of other projects.

I love the idea of Kickstarter, and it’s fun to watch them churn out interesting projects and succeed as a funding model. Congrats.
