<blockquote><p dir="auto">A few weeks ago I launched a crowd funding experiment and you were among the 145 people who sent me a contribution email. First, if I haven't already done so then I would like to thank you for the show of support!</p><p dir="auto">I already wrote about the results of the experiment. The conclusion was that it is worth a shot to launch a campaign on a real crowd funding site.</p><p dir="auto">Compared to the crowd funding experiment I've changed a few things. The goal is now to fund the time needed to finish version 2.0 of MailMate. This requires a minimum of 6 months of 2014 and therefore I've set the initial fixed goal to $25,000. A fixed goal means that I get nothing if the goal is not reached. Anything beyond $25,000 increases the period I am guaranteed to work full time on MailMate. The exact period depends on the regular daily sales, but an estimate based on 2013 is an additional month for every $5,000.</p><p dir="auto">Help me get a flying start by going to indiegogo. Please also help me spread the word wherever you think it is appropriate. The short link for the crowd funding page is simply <a href="https://igg.me/at/mailmate">https://igg.me/at/mailmate</a>.</p>
</blockquote><p dir="auto">That last link was wrong. It should have been: <a href="http://igg.me/at/mailmate">http://igg.me/at/mailmate</a></p><p dir="auto">Right now the campaign is at $3,197 out of $25,000. That's a bit more than 1/8th of the goal just a few hours into the campaign.
