Kickstarter recently introduced the “community tab” which allows you to see:

The top cities backers are coming from
The top countries backers are coming from
The number of new backers that supported the project and never backed a Kickstarter project before
The number of returning backers who have backed at least one other project
To give you an idea of what this looks like, I’ll showcase the community of the VSSL Mini LED Lantern campaign...

The Kickstarter Community Tab is a game changer. Gives lots of opportunities for targeting audience in your genre.

In Sal's last post on this he said "If you want to directly reach out to Kickstarter backers, it won’t let you do it via this new community tab, but there is a shortcut (at the time of writing).

Simply take the username of the individual whose profile you’d like to see. Then google “name site:kickstarter.com” and it will likely bring up some of their commenting activity. You can then click on their profile from the comments section."

Unfortunately, this is not the case. You can see the backer and what he has backed but you cannot contact them unless they backed one of your projects.

If anyone knows any differently, give a shout out!
