We've launched an exciting new project of our own! Introducing the Kickstarter app for iPhone!

Funded! This project successfully raised its funding goal on March 23, 2011.

We did it! Together, we raised $11,391 for NeighborGoods 2.0!

Update #5 · Mar 24, 2011 · 1 comment

It's official! We did it! And by we, I mean ALL OF US. You guys are the best neighbors anyone could have and you've proven it by chipping in to support sharing in your local community. We are so honored and excited to include you in the process. 

Now that this project has been funded, we will be able to complete the upgrade to NeighborGoods 2.0. This means new and improved groups including more privacy options, widgets you can share on your websites and improved location technology. 

We've already launched the first upgrade included in the NeighborGoods 2.0 project - the primary groups functionality. As backers of our project, you will be among the first to test out this new technology. 

We'll be following up with you next week to help you set up your community's sharing group. Be sure to look out for a message from kickstarter because we're going to need some information from you in order to send you your sweet rewards. 

Feel free to contact me any time with questions or suggestions at micki@neighborgoods.net. 

THANK YOU, NEIGHBORS!
