Hard to really evaluate the info without the time factor. KickStarter is massively popular, but I wonder how much of total haul is attributable to activity before IndieGoGo came along (I believe KS started first). It would have also been interesting to compare historical figures to activity in the past calendar year, overall trends (eg timeline to when KS got to 6X IGG) vs per categories, etc.
- jonchiehlau 13y agoIndiegogo started in 2008 and Kickstarter was launched in 2009. Also, we saw from the live dollar amounts that Kickstarter was quickly expanding it's lead.
- Geekette 13y agoWow, interesting to learn that Indiegogo actually launched first. Kickstarter's bigger brand stamp made it seem otherwise.
- moron4hire 13y agoI think Kickstarter technically started first, but IndieGoGo actually saw it's first hit of popularity first. It was close enough that the two weren't really influencing each other. As most inventions, it was separate individuals recognizing the semi-obvious.
