      I hope some of the first plugins for this will be Vim and Emacs bindings. I don't think I'd use it without them.

      I've been using emacs since 1980. Its great. But many of the core concepts and implementation is wedged in 1970's tech. I'm ready for something new. LightTable is the first thing I've seen that meets that criteria for me.

      Sad to see so little love for this project.
      //
      Everywhere I wrote about the project people went like 'use vim/emacs'. I love vim and I use it a lot, but what the hell?
      //
      I still think it's an interesting project, and I think it's going to be great to teach children programming. I'm sure you will succeed, and I'll up my pledge if necessary.

      Once the pre beta or early beta is going, you should consider setting up a forum, where backers can post feedback, suggestions, bugs, etc.

      I'm very interested in this - I have the worst time with most of the current IDEs, and could REALLY do with something better

      Hey, don't worry about that!

      From what I've seen with other projects, you just pick a single site where all the information is available and the fans would link to it and help you dealing with newcomers, and you just make some updates every three-four days.

      It's a nice project, will now go and try to make some people join it. :)
