Launching Kickstarter in 35 Days

I have been talking about creating an e-book version of my animation workshop for the past year. I’ve tweeted about it and people seem interested; I just can’t seem to get myself motivated to move forward.

Now that I am unemployed (I lost my job 2 month ago) I feel it is the best time to do something.

Kickstarter Experiment

Kickstartr

Today I received a surprising message from Kickstarter.  According to their newest press release, they will be changing their name from Kickstarter to Kickstartr.

Why would such a popular website change its name now?

Well, there is a long list of companies that have done this in the past.

For example:

  • The Walt Disney Company use to be called Laugh-O-Gram Studio
  • Xerox was originally Copy Cat Company
  • Nissan started car production as Datsu
  • Apple inc before incorporation was Job Industries.

For the reason behind the change, you must read the press release below:
