| Pledges from more than 100,000 Australians have helped propel crowdfunding website Kickstarter past $US1 billion ($1.13 billion) in project backing.
Yancey Strickler, who co-founded the site in April 2009, announced the milestone in a blog post on Tuesday morning.
"Congrats and thanks to our community, our friends, our families, and to the whole entire internet for making this possible," he wrote.
Close to 6 million people have pledged money to various creative projects – such as films, books and gadgets – via the site, including just shy of 110,000 Australians. Advertisement
With pledges from Australia totalling more than $US31 million ($34.6 million), only Canada, Britain and the US have contributed more.
