Guys, I have recently discovered a wonderful idea on the internet, under the name of KICKSTARTER

What's the deal with it and your possible projects? Well, all in a nutshell, here's how it works:

1) You have a project which can be a video for you band, an album you want to record for instance (although they cover many fields, aside from music and arts in general)
2) You register as a member and expose your project on the site (all necessary details and the sum of money needed to finalize it)
3) People who like your project, can offer money so that you may gather your necessary sum, step by step
4) In return, you may offer them something such as a copy of your album, signed when it's ready, for instance

The downside is, it only works for people living in the USA bummer on this one, but still, all you guys in the USA dreaming about getting something done, can check it out and who knows

I think it's a very useful tool, don't you?

It's great for Indie bands with a following to get something out there.

Gah, I thought you were going to send me some cash!!

Seen this work for indie games, great stuff.

When you say indie games, you mean games developed by an individual freelancing programmer or small company?

Usually a small company, but both, I guess

Thanks mate will you be joining us tonight?

Here's an example:

Kickstarter is awesome Some great products and content have started life as kickstarter projects. If you have a good idea, people will pony up real money for it!

I was waiting for your reaction Todd if there's something on the internet which is good, you know about it most likely

I didn't know this site but I think that the concept is fantastic! I hope that something similar but worldwide appears..

I was thinking about the exact same thing mate

It's pretty cool! I've heard about this website but never seen it!
Thank you!

Glad to be of assistance

Every country should have similar service definitely

Great find mate
Thanks for sharing!

Now we just need something like that for us non-americans...

No problem mate - I'd be most grateful if you'd share such something like that which would be possible to be accessed from Europe

thank you in advance
