Kickstarter, for those who’ve been living under a rock for the past few years, is one of the hottest start-ups this side of the Sun. Through it, everyone from your neighbor to the biggest names in art, science, and the wildly creative can post a project, and provided it’s good enough (or at least not boring), people from all over the world can donate, crowd=funding the project(s) to fruition and getting some nice bonuses for their trouble.

Okay, let’s just say that I am a crowdfunding junkie. I just love how people come up with their ideas and have the passion to get their ideas to be turned into reality. I just can’t get enough of the ideas. One of the newly discovered ideas, this time from Kickstarter, is INO – Coffee With a Twist: Fruit coffee beverage. Revolutionary. Innovative. Unique. My favourite.
But wait… I can understand orange juice or latte, but fruit coffee? Yes, you read it right – UK-based INO World Ltd.…
I love to visit crowdfunding site Kickstarter… for many reasons. To name a few, I like to know what inventors, artists and entrepreneurs are up to these days; knowing what interest people to back a particular project; getting some ideas for me to predict trends and try to use them to kickstart a mini project myself in the world I am familiar with – websites and web tools.
