Summary: Live crowdfunding (kind of) has launched with an iOS app in use at the LAUNCH startup festival in San Francisco this week. Contributor Paul Spinrad went to the festival to see it in action and reports back. Also in the Crowded Room, we talk about Waze handing the keys to its crowdsourced navigation app to its users, a company that helps crowdfunded projects "Make That Thing" that they promised, and also the story of an honest panhandler and the crowdfunding campaign to reward him that's met its goal almost 200 times over.
