BlooCoin is a crypto-currency currently in development. It is similar to BitCoin, except you don't need a fancy mining rig in order to gain any profits...at least not yet ;)

Client download link doesn't work.

From the github page:

BlooCoin is a crypto-currency like Bitcoin that uses a central server to handle all transaction, rather than using a peer-to-peer networking system.

DL via github works, but it doesn't connect to the server ("Server seems to be offline")

Try Open Transactions instead. It has servers up and running, and has a lot more going for it than a server that only handles one asset aka coin.

Yeah, but this one seems to be clean. It's just .py files, I inspected them beforehand and everything seems to be ok.
But don't take my word for granted, inspect the files yourself to be safe.

This coin was created by a user at HackForums.  I would be especially careful of this one.

It's untrusted code you download from the internet. It can do anything.. literally!

Don't forget BTC-E. Send them a few coins and a 6 pack of beer and they will IPO whatever shit they can get their hands on for a quick buck.
