I was speaking with one of the founders of one of the first successful (multi-million dollar) kickstart campaigns and Kickstarter is missing its "maker" edge. It used to be a place where people could go to test ideas and now it's mostly just a marketing platform for fleshed out ideas and products.
We took a step back and started building Baqqer[0] to help makers find community and resources while they from from idea to prototype to product. You should check it out, we have a lot of cool stuff like splash pages for projects, newsletters, etc. We also dog food our own product. Any feedback would be cool. :)
