Spot.Us launched in November of 2008, making this our three-year anniversary. Counting the months of planning (and applying for the Knight News Challenge) that went into the launch, I've been working on Spot.Us, a journalism crowdfunding project, for almost four years. In that time, we've pushed boundaries, and have had many successes and shortcomings which I've tried to share along the way. As I've always said, Spot.Us will never be perfect. It will never be "done," and as long as we can strive for something, we're making progress.
Today we are taking a big stride by formally being acquired by the Public Insight Network. There is a lot to suss out with this merger, but when you sit and think about it, it makes a lot of sense. The official press release is here.
