This is a great article, I particularly like how you admitted your mistakes and then showed the level of analysis it took to understand how to make the data say something honest and useful. Very good work here- compliments for getting a critic to be an ally (the statistics guy).
Interestingly, seems to be old-ish (June '12) according to some of the FB comments dated from then and the time references on the infographics at the bottom.
so sick of this lady still milking her drudgesiren.gif nofollow scoop. We're supposed to believe that Kickstarter is nefariously hiding unfunded projects? That this has nothing to do with new projects and Googlebot crawl budgets or that maybe hundreds of times a day they are emailed/called by unfunded folks with "I'm embarrassed everyone can find my unfunded project on Google. Can you delete it?". Also, she speaks of failed projects.. how is it failure? It's just not yet funded.
