1. Pebble: E-Paper Watch for iPhone and Android

    This is the most inspiring thing I’ve seen today. Just over a month ago, the Pebble Technology team set out to raise $100,000 to mass produce their smart watch via Kickstarter. 28 hours later, a million dollars had been pledged. Yes, 1 MILLION DOLLARS (insert Dr. Evil pinky here). Absolutely incredible. 3 days ago, the campaign ended. Here’s how things finished for the Pebble Team:

    Another record breaking campaign for Kickstarter. Kudos to these guys for doing a kick ass job at building something that people want. Interested in the watch that seemingly does it all? Learn about all its capabilities here then pre-order one here.

  4. This is one of the highlights of my weekend. GOOD is a media platform that promotes, connects, and reports on the individuals, businesses, and non-profits “moving the world forward.” Grateful that they felt the Hall Pass Tour deserved coverage.  (Click the screenshot, check out the article, join the movement #20BY20) hallpasstour: This morning, we were featured on GOOD!

  5. This is what I live for. 

    hallpasstour:

    I’m writing to you on my 28th birthday, grateful to be devoting this year’s celebration to a cause a million times greater than myself. Ladies and gents of TumblrLand, our Kickstarter project has officially launched! 

    So far, we’re really happy with the pledges that have been coming in. Our goal? 20,000 by October 20. We’re calling it the 20:20 campaign (#20BY20 on Twitter). It’s an ambitious goal but with the funds, we’ll be able to reach the 16 schools that are on board for the kick-off of the tour this fall. This time, we’re expanding — that’s right, this will be the start of our NATIONWIDE tour. Connecticut, Delaware, Massachusetts and New York.

    The cool thing about Kickstarter is, it’s a community that allows you to get rewards for projects that you back. For example, Nickey-Ann Leon (thank you, Nickey-Ann!) pledged $100 today and her rewards package includes a Hall Pass Tour t-shirt, custom 512MB USB drive (which looks like this) pre-loaded with a 1-of-1 Sing-O-Gram or Rap-O-Gram and a blooper video, an honorary Hall Pass, two free concert tickets and more.

    It’s pretty awesome and scary at the same time because Kickstarter is ALL or NOTHING. So if we don’t reach the $20,000 goal, we walk away with $0.

    Check out the project here: hallpasstour.com/kickstarter

    If you’re compelled enough by it, join the #20BY20 movement by liking it (via Facebook), tweeting it (via Twitter), blogging it (on your personal site), telling a friend or pledging a dollar or two. The choice is yours but whatever you decide, we’re honored to have you on board.

    Thank you for being here, right now, in this space. Let’s get this mountain moved!

    <3,

  6. Using music to advance access to higher education.: Two Days Til Kickstarter!

    hallpasstour:

    We’re just TWO days away from launching our Kickstarter project and we’re really excited about the cool rewards we’ll be giving away to supporters and the events we have planned around the city to raise awareness about the tour (and give away more free stuff).

    Yesterday, we had the pleasure…
