Dan, I enjoy reading your blog. However you do put alot of kickstarter stuff on here. I bought, or think I bought, a tripod from one of those kickstarter sites thinking it would arrive before a long trip. That was ~ 12 weeks ago and nothing has arrived. I think it was Indiego, or similar. My point is that you might not be best served by promoting things that you have no experience with and depending on the kickstarter companies might be hurting your blog.
Thanks for the feedback
