The Problem of Overfunding on KickStarter

As the web appears to have gone on holiday we present a mixed bag of goodness on Episode 010. We lament the loss of one of our zero’s, Kieran brings forth the news and the funny and we engage in a almost academic level of discourse on the issues associated with overfunding on crowdfunding platforms. Also included – a bit of Startup talk, a new Mac code editor, the new Royal baby and our first ever competition.

Lunchbox Competition

To enter the Back to Front Show lunchbox giveaway simply tweet the answer to the following question before Friday 2nd August 2013. All correct answers will be entered into the draw. If nobody guesses correctly the closest response will win.

Question: What is the height difference in inches between Kieran and Keir?

The Joys &#038; Perils of Remote Working

In a change to the announced billing, an impromptu early morning phone call made us think a chat about remote working might be in order. As many of us fight the January blues, and inevitable bout of illness that the new year often brings, it felt a timely opportunity to discuss the good, and the bad, aspects of working from a distance.

Topics we discuss include:

  • How does working remotely affect us?
  • What we both like and dislike about it
  • How much real work you achieve per day
  • The importance of “banter”
  • Is the reality like the dream?
  • A typical day for remote working?
  • Do we put extra pressure on ourselves to output more as we are not in the office?
  • How to feel part of the company you work for

And finally for those Nabaztag doubters out there you can read the full history of the internet enabled rabbit on Wikipedia!

Five Simple Steps Giveaway

To be in with a chance of winning one of the two sets of Five Simple Step’s Pocket Guide Collection 3 all you have to do it answer one of the following two questions correctly. Kieran’s decision will be final (he’s a harsh judge):

  1. Q: What was Matthew Lillard’s handle in the cult-classic 1995 film Hackers?
  2. Q: In the same year Sandra Bullock played a Systems Analyst in the film The Net. During the course of the film her identity is changed by cyber criminals but what is the name they gave her?

To enter just send a tweet to @backtofrontshow with your answer. We’ll announce winners on the next episode.

The Future of Medium?

Happy New Year to you all! Rather unsurprisingly we missed our end of year review but the outline was probably one of our best. Maybe we’ll do it next year!

This episode we catch up on Kieran’s move behind the camera, argue over what exactly constitutes a pair of Daps and delve into the future of Medium in light of Ev Williams recent announcement.

If you like the show don’t forget you can support our astronomical S3 costs by becoming an exclusive member of the Back to Front Show Club!
