‘Things We Start’ Shows Where in the World We Kickstart

Kickstarter has been growing — OK, skyrocketing — since its start in 2009, raising nearly $300 million and launching 70,000 projects. With so many campaigns and so much money comes a lot of data, leading to new ways to explore, categorize, and display Kickstarter’s output. Launching into that niche today is Things We Start, a real-time, interactive, searchable data visualization map of live Kickstarters, and it brings some interesting potential for prospective campaigners and backers alike.

Things I’ve learned from Things We Start:

Xan Aranda’s Mormon Movie is both the newest and highest earning Chicago film project on Kickstarter. 

“Things We Start” offers no comparison of perks, but I’m fairly confident it would be number one on that count, too.  Weekend passes to the Hideout Block Party! backstage passes to Neko Case! Tickets to Andrew Bird: Fever Year! Dance Derby!
