Kickstarter’s new Spotlight feature: an ongoing storefront for creators

0
A Kickstarter is a little like having a baby in only 31 days, You put all your efforts into the birth, but then what happens to the baby? Well now we'll get to see the kids grow up and go to school. Kickstarter is enabling creators to showcase more of what happens to projects after the initial funding ends with a new "Spotlight" feature. All creators with funded projects will now be able to manage the page to present a view of their work, with huge graphics, an inviting look, an attractive new timeline feature that can share the creator's story at a glance, and links that can go anywhere—so buy buttons and links to ongoing projects can be added.
