February was a big month for Kickstarter. Not only did they have a number of record-breaking projects, but they were shoved into the mainstream consciousness with a flood of traditional news coverage.But there was always the question of whether these thousands of pledges would have any lasting effect on the site. Could such a rush of attention actually have negative effects, increasing competition and bringing in more projects than the site's population of donors can handle?Fortunately, that doesn't seem to have been the case. The site's big month appears to have made a lasting increase in both projects, users, and funding.
