we are working on a touch-up of the check-out process as we speak.

nothing we can do about amazon drop-off, but we'll try and communicate the kickstarter process better for the older set.

hi rumor. perry from kickstarter here.

first off, love your project.

we believe that the ticking clock (and the deadline) increases the number of backers for projects. if the there's no cut-off, many people never get around to backing. it's one of the reasons the final few days of a project have so much activity.

I'm backing a bunch of projects, but especially like small projects with unique interactions:

Hi Chuck, Perry from Kickstarter here. I understand your disappointment, and apologize for the frustration.

While we have tried to avoid plastering the word "beta" throughout our site, it would be a fair description of our current state. There are things we are learning and refining that we want to get done before we open project creation to everyone.

I know this is not ideal, but our goal is to get you a better product to fund your projects.

If you are still interested (and I hope you are), please drop us a note via the site and I'd be happy to personally notify you once project creation is available to all.

I was recently introduced to Echosign by someone on the other side of a contract, as an alternative to the sign/email/scan dance.

Re: Initial Thoughts On MySpace Music

Fred, a noisy interface has never been a measurable negative for MySpace's core audience. While you and I may gravitate to cleaner sites like Hype Machine, I think the greater audience (not just MySpace's audience) either has no problem with a glut of content/advertising noise, or in many cases feels more comfortable with it.

Realizing your post just a voicing of your own personal preferences for interface-design, excuse me for seizing upon this opportunity to note how it is always interesting to hear the voices of "needs to be cleaner and more intuitive!" vs "wha? who cares!"

Another battle of that war will likely be fought Android to iPhone starting next month.
