The headline says 10 kickstarter projects, but I only see eight links.
Ken’s traveling so I’ll assume he was just on autopilot when typing the headline. 🙂 Corrected now, though the URL will have to stay the same.
Thank you so much for including our project OrbMi in your list. It’s great to be called “Awesome” not only by a geek or a dad, but a true geek-dad combo.
We have had dads who are often away on business share thoughts about reading a bedtime story or saying goodnight (which of course is never on a set schedule) or being a voice they can hear while getting ready for school. There are dad’s with shared custody who liked this option as a way to stay in better contact with their kids. Fathers who have talk about reaching their kids in the college dorm or those finding it a fun way to just check in and share with their own dads with a little geek tech…and great feedback from new dads, future dads, and “non-dads” as well.
Of course..we invite everyone to review our Kickstarter campaign and contribute if they can….but we would really love for people to feel free to reach us with questions or if anyone has 2.5mins to share some thoughts on our project through our survey it would be great – https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/TB2HVQQ
