Wow! This is VERY exciting! The fundraiser for "Inside TidlyWiki: The Missing Manual" is off to a great start: after just 5 days of a 60 day campaign, it has already been viewed by people in over 33 countries, and the TiddlyWiki Community has so far raised $1,290 (17.2% toward the goal!)
This includes generous contributions of $500 each from the first two official Partners of Inside TiddlyWiki -- "ocalTW" and "HansWobbe" -- as well as contributions from several new Friends of Inside TiddlyWiki. Based on this initial indication, it looks certain that the "Inside TiddlyWiki" campaign is going to be a huge success, and I'm currently planning on beginning actual work on the book in January or February, 2015, once the fundraising has been completed. However, with Indiegogo's "Flexible Funding" model, although contributions made by credit card are held until after the campaign ends on January 15th, contributions made through PayPal are transferred to me as soon as they are processed. This means that there is a possibility that I could begin work as early as the beginning of December rather than waiting until January/February! If we can raise just $2500 (33% of the goal) in Indiegogo contributions **paid through PayPal by the end of November** (10 days from now), then I can start work on writing Inside TiddlyWiki as soon as those funds are available. So, make your contribution (via PayPal) NOW, and we can "Jump Start" this project into high gear! https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/inside-tiddlywiki-the-missing-manual/x/8816263 -e Eric Shulman TiddlyWiki Classic Lead Developer TiddlyTools / ELS Design Studios Inside TiddlyWiki: The Missing Manual -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
