Joseph,
It looks like the psychology of
crowd funding, kickstarting, and
looming deadlines is finally
beginning to kick in.
Right
now, on the MAYDAY website,
we're seeing a pledge rate of 5
pledges per minute. That's the
highest it's ever been. We
raised about $20,000 in the last
30 minutes.
Here's
my concern: That this last minute
surge is coming just a little too
late, and we'll miss the goal by a
day.
If we
can get within striking distance
by Friday morning, I think the
excitement and momentum can get us
over the top. Here's what that
means: What you do RIGHT
NOW is even more important than
what you do in the final hours.
I need you
to pile on. And tell everyone
to join you.
This
has always been a long shot. And
until today, our shot was looking
even longer. But I'm
seeing a glimmer of hope.
If you've
been waiting to pledge or
pledge again, or have been
putting off talking to those
five friends, now is the time.
