Here are three projects funded by normal human beings. I'd love to hear your thoughts on impact. http://experiment.com/snails http://experiment.com/snails http

  I mention this above, but my first thought on "impact" is that they're really neat experiments, but it's very much in the domain of "enough preliminary data to keep a grad student busy for a bit and justify a pilot grant submission". A great stepping stone, but... I'll be honest, I looked at crowdfunding when I was working on my dissertation. It was more work than an industry grant (especially when you include wooing the public) for a fraction of the money.
