Big Project Pressy Kickstarter raises over $500,000Pressy Kickstarter project raises over 500 000The next big project from crowd-funded website Kickstarter is Pressy.

Anything your phone can do can be set up to run using Pressy. The very first day, the project received twice the $40,000 it was seeking and is now up to more than $500,000 in funding. What will the company do with all of this money? For one thing, they are creating a push-to-talk system they call Pressy-to-talk.
