That person would have to wait 30 days to list the project in order to bank on the buzz from the tv appearance.
That example is just off the top of my head, but the point is that some of the world doesn't work at the pace of the web.
- jonathanjaeger 15y agoI disagree with your logic. You can find a good reason for anything. For example, Kickstarter chose to make funding a project an all-or-nothing deal (either you raise all your funding or none of it). This creates a sense of urgency that has contributed to the popularity of Kickstarter -- more projects get funded because of this. Obviously someone who put $10K as their amount might still be able to do their project with less, but that defeats the effectiveness of the site as a whole. The same can be said for the time limit, though it's a smaller issue.
