New to the BitCoin Community and wanted to get to know you all!  ;D  figured best way is to add you on twitter so go ahead post your twitter handles!  :D

@bitstarter

Welcome! I'm fairy new myself (about a month).  Found out about Bitcoin from someone I follow on youTube. Addicted to every little peice of news and price change since.

Hi Nick!

Tell me about it I'm officially bitcoin'd  ;D  Been reading up on it and I find it just amazing!  I added you on twitter thanks again and look forward to being part of this with you!  ;D

I'm seven weeks into the first Bitcoin Roadtrip, I've driven from CT to Salt Lake spending only Bitcoins and am gonna keep going till at least LA. You can follow my adventures on Twitter @TheRealPlato or my blog www.therealplato.com

Wow, just love it the first BitCoin Roadtrip! Might have to help you out! ;) Love the blog!  I live in L.A ...you'll be arriving to very nice weather ...

Followed  ;D

Added @bitcoininfo  lots of great automated information!  ;D

Thanks! good to see the bitcoin community is thriving!

Who do you work for?

Was that directed at me ?  ???

I am new here, but have an extensive online history.  An eBay account with 100% feedback, a longtime Youtube account, and am staff on a fairly large site.  I would link all of those here, but why ruin anonymity?  If I deal with anyone, I will provide all of that info.

I have been a lurker for a while now, I have 213 BTC in my wallet from messing around late last year, and pretty much forgot about it after last January.  I saw something about Bitcoin on Gizmodo, and I was amazed to see how high it had jumped!  I figure that now would be a good time to start contributing to the community, seeing as how BTC has a chance to be the first real decentralized currency.  I work in an industry that would greatly benefit from Bitcoin catching on, so here is to the future! :)

Hey,

I've been involved with Bitcoin for a few weeks now, with only two to my name.
I do graphic and UI design, as well as sell buttons.

They call me Atlas on the sovereign web. As for real life, the name's Immanuel. I want to build things and dream of doing so all the time, in the name of assuring my own happiness and the pursuit of it for my fellow sentient beings. I see Bitcoin as a creation that will further these goals.

Godspeed.

My Twitter is @FFStudios, but I never use it. I'm also really new to Bitcoins, looking forward to learning the ins and outs of it!

I'm carbonpenguin, aka Matt. I'm the business editor of the Bitcoin Sun, and I sell bitcoin t-shirts at http://www.iusecoins.com. Welcome aboard!  8)

i'll be 60 on saturday.  i've been an antiquarian bookman since i was nine, and did twenty years as a network designer and admin.

i've got a spare room papered in stock options.

"conservatives" think i'm a liberal, and "liberals" think i'm conservative.  i like that...

I'm "edd" here and on other online forums and I created a twitter account for my coffee site, @BitBrew. Now, if just a few more of you guys would buy some beans from me, I'll quit my day job and tweet a lot more, promise.

Hello Everyone;

Newbie here, with no excuse to be so, and kicking myself for not being involved earlier.  Still, I believe Bitcoin has quite a future and I am happy to associate with such an interesting group.

I've already managed to lose my first 0.02 by forgetting the password, and am in Dwolla-Mt.Gox limbo waiting to buy my first few, looking at the stories here I'm amazed at how exponential growth has been. 

Looking forward to being involved in this community.

Yo, I'm @Astrohacker0, and I blog at astrohacker.com. I have also made a lot of trades on #bitcoin-otc: http://bitcoin-otc.com/viewratingdetail.php?nick=astrohacker

Hi everybody! I'm unfinishe(d). I'm a young college student, I'm pretty much broke, and I'm overwhelmed by how much I have yet to learn about the world and figure out about myself (hence the name). I do programming for fun, especially crazy projects like tracing my coins all the way back to the 10,000 BTC pizza (http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=9238.msg162995#msg162995). You might see me around the forums doing whatever I can for BTC.

hello everyone. I heard about the bitcoin some time ago and dismissed it but read about it lately and found it rather fascinating. Am amazed at the community it's generated

Hi guys. Airdata here!  Been here about a week or so and up at 3am when I have work in 4 hours!

Twitter @airdata8

...

Congratulations on your decision to come out as a fairy.  The first month is the hardest, it will get easier from here  :P

In all seriousness, my introduction:

I'm a n00b and wannabe anonymized BTC grey-market entrepreneur.  So far I have started two projects but in both cases, after a few days of implementation work, someone put up a web site and announced that their vaporware implementation was almost ready :'(

Anyhow to prevent this from happening again, I'm contemplating entering a much more saturated market: online BTC gambling :)

Amazing to see the breadth of people who have found an interest in this ! glad to have met you! I hope to have 213 BTC in my wallet soon!  ;D

Great to meet you!  do you do logo's I need one :)

Immanuel nice to meet you!  I'm looking forward to helping build things and dreaming big! ;D

Welcome to the noob club!  :o  I'm learning the ins and outs also ...I'll add you on twitter! ;D

Carbonpenguin, pleasure to meet you also! I'll check out the Bitcoin Sun and your t-shirt place!  ;D

Skysurfer808 I'm kicking myself also!  but now you are here! ;D

Hi,

I'm a new guy to this stuff. I run a experimental music netlabel (http://zvukolom.org) and we decided to support bitcoin by running an bitcoin donations option :). I also wrote a nice script for backup & encryption of your BTC wallet (https://github.com/mrkva/BitcoinBackup.sh).

Great to hear you are supporting bitcoin as an option for donations!  I'll have to check out the script you wrote  ;D welcome! ;D

hi! im a high school student from Denmark :D i currently working on bitdrop the Courier network.
im a python/C/bash programmer. and i am a Linux 'fanboy'
nice to see you all.

Hi all, Just heard of bitcoin there on Reddit and seems very interesting and fast moving.
I'm not sure if the mining/buying idea is best yet but hope to get involved soon

The Bitdrop sounds great! looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

I'm on the fence regarding mining/buying also!   ???

inner here ;) techy, nerd, geek, web marketing, web hosting, design, coding, loves long walks on the beach and prefers to pay in bitcoins for wine.

I've built 2 rigs already @ 1.2 ghash/s and im loving it. Bitcoin + beer (purchased with bitcoins) + pizza = awesome.

Chow!

Greetings to you all!

I get chills reading this!  just awesome! glad to meet you  ;D

oh and followed :)

Hello, I first found out about bitcoin months ago, but i didn't think much of it and just brushed it aside. Now I want in. though i really need to invest on a new pc.

jim, from auckland, new zealand. I learned about bitcoins from the 2p2 poker community.

cheers!

I am new here, about to post a thread so that hopefully, I can get my hands on this potentially world changing currency. :)

Hey there, I saw a post about bitcoin on whatreallyhappened.com(I think, I read so many sites every day), poking my head in and taking a look. fascinating stuff, want to learn much more :)

oh. it not just me, there is a whole bunch of people working on it. :)

I figured there was a bunch of people working on it! ;)

i screwed up English again... it has some thing to do with the "you", right?

I got what you meant!  ;D  your english is just fine.

Use the "edit" button on the upper right of any post of yours then needs correction.

not needing corrections... just need to learn English.  :D
im making mistakes -> im learning.

Welcome Kellchiro! that twitter ID didn't work!  :'(

sorry about that

Hello all, I made the "Unimpressed by MtGOX" thread. I put in a a very large sum of money. It has been over 48 hours, a number of rallies, and I still don't have my money on my mtgox account after being told it would be up shortly. I am highly frustrated by this and have essentially missed out on nearly doubling my money. Every moment that passes feels like watching money burn.

Damn... I remember the glory days when I thought 11.5 was a tragic jump up from the 8.5 I was on the edge of buying as I waited for my wire transfer to go through to Paxum (No dwolla in Canada). Then it did and I sent it to mtgox. Then the last 48 hours happened.

In other news, people on this forum seem quite mature and generally well spoken. =)

not a problem! ;D

I'm new glad to be here though! ;D

Hi all; I am a newbie. @Kid81 here although I hardly ever use Twitter. I am an Aussie and have been on here about 2 weeks. Must say; I am very excited but also a little apprehensive.

To those who are having trouble with MtGox money in your accounts. I was logged in to MtGox for days, It told me the money was in my account however it never came through. I finally logged out; changed my mind, logged back in and the cash was there. If you haven't already done so, log out and log in; it could solve your problem (either that or i am telling people what they already know and this isn't the issue!!!)

Hi everybody
I don't remember how I heard about Bitcoin but it's highly possible it was from @Lulzsec too
I hope I could be of some help here ;D

Nice 2 rigs

I am from the southern USA.  I heard about Bitcoin about 3 months ago, an I dismissed it immediately.  "Yet another internet money".  Naturally I looked into it and saw what really was and how it worked.  Despite pressure not to get involved I bought some when PayPal was still being used.  I then started mining.  I am at 2Gh/s now.  I would have been better off just buying, but mining has been fun.

I am a computer scientist and electrical engineer.  I work on robots and sensors mostly.  In my spare time I build imposing allamagoosas like Tesla Coils and electronic whirligigs.  I however know little of php and the like so it is taking a while to get my web store up.  I would price thing based on how difficult it was for me to mine coins, not MtGox.

I also perform in the theater and I create elaborate Halloween displays.

Sounds like you went through the dwolla route.

[ bump  ;D ]

wtf, it's the Newbie forum all over again.

hahaha... this was the "og introduce yourself thread" way before that one! ;D
