Hiya, backers. Some of you are probably wondering what ever happened to Big Questions. This is, while not a Big Question, certainly a fair one. The short answer is: Life. Life happened. Things intruded, time went by, and well, here we are. Let me... (Read More)

Update: A year ago I couldn't spell "video editing." Now I am one.
February 1st - via: kickstarter.com
