The crowd-funding website Kickstarter has given climb to a series of engaging projects given the initial in 2009. One bid in sold held my eye a couple of months ago, after my father referred to we take a look: the Kogeto Dot.

If you’re examination a Dot-shot video uploaded to Kogeto’s website, we can pierce your rodent or trackpad to pierce the video in the same way.
From the Looker app, Dot users can upload their videos to the aforementioned Kogeto website as good as to Facebook as good as Twitter. Kogeto likes to call videos uploaded to the site Dotspots, as good as nonetheless the Dot is still a antecedent as good as not nonetheless in stores, a little engaging videos have already been shot.
On Kickstarter, Kogeto had a aim of raising $ 20,000 to assistance account a entirely satisfied Dot, that could sell for $ 79 in stores as good as online. Instead, Kogeto lifted $ 120,514.
