The Order of the Stick, a webcomic that satirizes role-playing games and medieval fantasy, has drawn a devoted following since its inception in 2003 — but no one, not even comic author and illustrator Rich Burlew, realized the true extent of its fans’ dedication.
Burlew’s just-closed Kickstarter project, The Order of the Stick Reprint Drive, solicited a whopping $1,254,120 from 14,952 backers, exceeding his initial goal of $57,750 more than 21 times over. It marks the third project in Kickstarter history to top the $1 million mark, and is the site’s most-funded project by just one individual (as opposed to a company).

The crowdsourcing platform is a virtual marketplace for freelancers and companies - this is where all projects are implemented online. Here the power lies in numbers. It's all about people coming together to work to achieve goals and solve problems. And to a large extent they are driven by their own motivation - not because a company has committed them to it. Both crowdsourcing and coworking are based on the fact that people who work in virtual and physical networks can in this way create a higher value collectively than if they acted independently. This is also true for problem-solving, innovation and creative output.
