Crowdfunding Flow Chart

Crowdfunding is a scheme whereby inventors and other types of startup individuals and groups pitch their plan to the public and solicit payment of funds with the promise of certain goods or services when and if the monetary goal is met or exceeded. If, for instance, I wanted to develop new RF system planning software and needed, say, $100,000 to produce a beta version, I might promise $50 donors ('investors') a specially designed T-shirt, $100 donors an early beta for evaluation and discount on first release, and $500 donors a full release version.

Maury Microwave / Noisecom UFX 7000B Noise Generator - RF Cafe Website

RF Cafe began life in 1996 as "RF Tools" in an AOL screen name web space totaling 2 MB. Its primary purpose was to provide me with ready access to commonly needed formulas and reference material while performing my work as an RF system and circuit design engineer. The World Wide Web (Internet) was largely an unknown entity at the time and bandwidth was a scarce commodity. Dial-up modems blazed along at 14.4 kbps while tying up your telephone line, and a lady's voice announced "You've Got Mail" when a new message arrived...
