I actually put on a white shirt and my one and only necktie in order to record a new video today for our IndieGoGo funding page. I am uploading it to youtube now. That takes quite awhile.

This one is pretty straight, nothing too humorous. And I attempted to put in a more pointed appeal for help. Maybe that will get some contributions coming in.

I was doing some reading about crowdfunding this week. And they had a number of good points, one of which was to keep updating the project page and sending out tweets and generally keep the thing churning a bit. We set ours up as 45 day project so we are 1/3rd of the way through. The article said that there was usually a burst at the beginning then
a bit of a slump and a burst at the end. I’m hoping we have a _big_ burst at the end.

We aren’t going to get too emotionally wrapped up in it. It reminds me of having something for sale up on Ebay: it is easy to sit there hitting refresh all day to see if anyone is bidding. We don’t want to do that.

So I’m loading more content, fiddling around with this PA/telephone interface box, and working on other aspects of the project. There are lots of things to do without fretting about the funding campaign.
