Kickstarter as a commitment device

I wanted to spend a lot of time on Get In Touch, but I was finding it difficult to motivate myself to put in enough time. I decided to launch a very small ($60) kickstarter campaign and ask some friends to pledge small amounts. I'd use the campaign to publicly commit to several release deadlines, as a way to create peer pressure for myself.
