News You Can Bruise for 2012 July 10 (entry 1)

(1) Tue Jul 10 2012 10:41 Month of Crowdfunding #10: Huzzah! of Code: Maybe I should change my birthday so Month of Kickstarter isn't full of Burning Man projects. Not that the Burning Man projects crowd out other projects, I just find it annoying. Anyway, here's today's crop:

• New Album! 80s Flavored Folk Pop! Huzzah!, which I backed more or less entirely on the strength of the "Huzzah!". It's an adventure!
• Going back to IndieGoGo for BlackGirlsCODE's 2012 Summer of Code: "BlackGirlsCODE will hold programming workshops in seven cities across the country for girls of color during our 2012 SUMMER of CODE." Not, I'm pretty sure, affiliated with Google's Summer of Code.

I don't think I mentioned this explicitly, but if there's some crowdfunding project you think I should back, let me know about it. That's a general rule, but I'm more likely to actually back a suggested project during Month of Kickstarter.

Here are a few projects:

Could almost be the basis of a portlandia sketch (but I love it) :

For all the kids who liked the box more than the toy:

^^^ I do wish the reward levels were a bit better for this one, though.
