Ive never actually backed a project! But now what I have one i feel like I need to!

my friend backed a project \ and it came 2 years later, Kittyo. helps owner to interact with cats while they are away. the machine will shoot treats and laser llights, allow owner to speak with cats too. it was a new idea back then, that was why we bought it.

On the one hand I am backing projects where I really want to have the reward on the other hand I am chipping in some money on projects I think are cool or where I know the creators.

I am backing the projects just to support them because it is hard for kickstarter creators to kickstart right away

I have backed around 10 projects; some on kickstarter and one on a site, its defunct now called startjoin. I back more to enable the campaign of another person than for the reward.

We haven't backed any projects so far. We began our campaign not long ago. However, I have see crazy projects, very innovative and well developed. I have checked some of the creators and they have a really special mindset. Very creative! If we get the opportunity we would help any project come to life, simply because if it's well elaborated then it means that the creator is very passionate about what they do. If they're passionate, I'm sure it will be a success if it goes on the market.

Our project is launching soon, and we would love to get your feedback on it! It is the State-of-the-Art protection for your phone. Besides being protective, we added style and originality! We want to take this across the globe to reduce people's expense on their shattered screens! I will leave the URL here. Thanks in advanced! http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/sapphireglass/673648652?token=963b431b

I just backed my 10th project today from my personal Kickstarter account. I backed at least 10 more from my "campaign" accout, mostly for 1 or 5$ as a cross promotion thing.

I like this project because of the following reasons.

Firstly, from an aesthetic point of view, it has a very red color which is very retro and really beautiful.

Secondly, its design is very accord with the recommends of the anthropometry. For example, the edges of the camera are all round without any sharpen corner.

Last but not least, it will attract many people who like fashionable and innovative products. So I think the project will have a success on the camera markets.

What is your top criteria for backing something?

1) 3 so far
2) I like it when people back us, so it's nice to back somebody else as well.

Actually the first project I backed I did to see how Kickstarter 'works' on the backer-side of things. Basically to better understand the process and learn what our backers will need to do for their pledges.
