Kickstarter right in the ouch

For those who do not know, Kickstarter is a website that connects people who have ideas (good or bad), with people who have money. It has been used to fund projects from video games to new business adventures, as well as even some town based stuff. It is a good service that has just shot in popularity. Of course, is this popularity good or bad?

With the increase of people who use it, it is getting harder and harder for people who are not doing projects that are popular to begin with. But is that bad? The world is always going to be full of projects that are more popular when some are not. Some are going to be wonderful and not get funding, when some are horrible and get more than what they asked for. With Kickstarter, at least it allows life to be easy, with the creating the account by using your Facebook account and nice sorting of projects so then you can really keep in track with what is going on and not have to deal about the small things.

I like the idea of kickstarter and wish it will continue being around for many a year. I have a question for you all, what is your experience with kickstarter or site that does stuff that is similar? If you never used it, what would be one project that you would want to fund, or try and get funded?

Your Fellow Technomancer,
