- arkitaip 15y agoHow about 3 years? Because that's how many years Kickstarter has existed.
- SoftwareMaven 15y agoThat's how many years they've been live. Their ideas and initial work go back beyond that.

- Jun8 15y agoAgree, but they were also very lucky that some other team didn't come up with the idea and executed during that time.
- shawnc 15y agoAs I understood it IndieGoGo launched before Kickstarter. I think the luck lands more in the realm of positive press early on - something IndieGoGo didn't get the same amount of. And honestly - that has to do with (IMO) the polish Kickstarter had to it when it launched.
