Update #2: Big News: You've Got Inches Right Here, Right Now. Welcome To Plymouth
Posted on September 10, 2009
This is an important inchvestor update as LOVELAND takes a turn for the tangible and grows a first colony.
Effective immediately, the first 10,000 inches of LOVELAND have been defined as the Plymouth colony and exist in my studio at the Russell Industrial Center in Detroit. You can read more about this foundational colony on the 7 Billion Friends blog at http://bit.ly/2VhH0c. Your inches now have a first physical home and next week you'll be able to get a look at the grid and start experimenting.
I'm now going to turn my attention to focus on achieving the current Kickstarter goal by reaching out to more people I think will be incherested. With this new news in mind, invite your friends to inchvest and join in on the Plymouth action. If this current round is successful we'll be up to over 4,000 inches, almost half way through the first territory. The current Kickstarter round is at http://bit.ly/1Fea8r .
Inch long and prosper,
Jerry
