'''Myke Hurley:''' And can you give people a pro tip about Kickstarter right now? Mm-hmm. While we're at the end of the show, because this seems like the kind of audience that would like this. Download the Kickstarter app.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Log in on the app. Go to your notifications. Turn on push notifications for updates. And then you can turn off email notifications in the app. It's a much better experience. You get to browse Kickstarter and put pledges through and stuff on the iPhone. And you don't need to get Kickstarter emails anymore. You just get them by push notification. Keeps the old email inbox clean.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' There you go. Pro tip. I like that.

'''Myke Hurley:''' I did it myself the other day. And I just really liked that in the app's preferences, like in your preference page on the app, you're able to turn off email notifications. That's why it's pretty cool.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Cool. Because I do use the app, but I don't have it set up like that. So I like that. Very good. Pro tip.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Indeed. Indeed. And that's how I got your update. Great. And I got one for the Inc. today where they said that they were thinking about doing different size nibs.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' I saw that.

'''Myke Hurley:''' And I hope they don't give in to peer pressure and go from medium to fine just because of you pen addicts. They should stick with medium. Hey, I didn't say a word. Oh, I bet you didn't.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' But I'll be filling out the survey.

'''Myke Hurley:''' I'm sure that you will. I hope that they stick with the medium nib personally because I think it's better for the majority of people. Probably so. They can sell them. They can sell on selection nibs. That'd be cool. There you go. Yep. That's what we call a revenue stream. Here's another pro tip. When you're on Kickstarter and looking for Karas Customs, don't type Kickstarter into the search box on Kickstarter. It's not going to get you. It's not going to get you what you want. It's just going to...

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Now that's a pro tip I can get behind right there.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Don't search the name of the website on the website that you're already on. It's not going to get you anywhere. And you can find Brad on Twitter. He is Dowdyism, D-O-W-D-Y-I-S-M. And I am iMike, I-M-Y-K-E. We'll be back next week. I'm sorry that you've had to listen to me and him be absolutely sick this week, really. I'm croaking and he's coughing.

'''Myke Hurley:''' That's what we call a great start to 2014, everyone. Happy New Year to you all. Thank you so much for listening to this week's episode. And I hope that you continue to listen to us as the year progresses. We'll be back next week with another episode of The Pen Addict. Until then, bye-bye. Bye.
