People pay lip service to wanting to buy locally made, but they don't vote with the only thing that matters, the willingness to pay more. As long as consumers demand the absolute lowest price, regardless of the exploitation required to achi

Please please please do an ePub version. PDF is great for reading on a computer, but an ePub is miles better on an iPad. I'll buy a digital copy if it comes in ePub, but not if it's only PDF.

You do understand that you aren't buying a bulb for $70 right? You are funding a startup and in return you get a reward of one of the bulbs. Kickstarter isn't a retail store, so many people miss the point of it. It's the same as when people

FYI, there's no such thing as "over-arrogant", there's no amount arrogance that is considered a positive, you would just say someone is arrogant. Though given your use of air quotes about the "big guys", I may be wasting my time here.

Yes but why is it "Advanced Google Analytics for Startups" and not "Advanced Google Analytics" or "Advanced Google Analytics for Websites"?
