Crowdfunding: Connecting Creators and Patrons

elf boosted the signal for a friend's project, The Fujoshi Guide to Web Development. "Help us put the means of website production back into the hands of those best suited to receive them: fandom people."

"Learn web development from hot anime guys in a dating sim. Well, not actually a dating sim. But it looks like a dating sim."

Here is a sample of the GIT Zine. (Do not read with mouth full.) This looks like a great guide for visual thinkers, even in its early, sketchy stage. It is even legible for me, and I don't code. Also, decorating an instruction manual with hawt catboys will definitely make fans look at it.

I am delighted to see someone doing concrete things to encourage more folks to create websites and services, as alternatives to the current ones that mostly suck. Take back the web!

Also, promoting this project may help us get things that we want.  The more people know how to make websites, the more likely it becomes that someone will create a crowdfunding hub site that hosts all types of projects, rather than just being a storefront or just hosting one type.  Several times, we've talked here about how to set up such a thing, and the leading reason it's never gone farther than talk is that nobody interested in it knows how to build the kind of website  for it.
