Marketplace Tech for Thursday, February 21, 2013
Yahoo's homepage has gotten a makeover. Why? The website wants to be a place that people visit -- and stay on. And we were all just starting to get used to the idea of 3D printing, and now here comes the 3Doodler -- a pen that lets you draw with plastic. The company that makes the 3Doodler launched a Kickstarter campaign two days ago with a goal of raising $30,000. Since then the campaign has raised over $1 million. Maybe that's because the price is right: $75.
