A definite 'must' event for those who would like to understand the latest happenings from the global scene in Bitcoin.
Aaron travels widely and is a fascinating speaker.

The CIS hosts this event, so expect it to have some awesome FOSS members and legal heads amongst others.

Coindesk will be reporting on the event with Video coverage.
We should have an event on the 8th as well at Microsoft.

Which brings me to an uber kewl implement of Crypto.

step 1: Suzy adds her Bio and 10-15 erotic pictures onto her free profile.
step 2: Suzy sets a price for a full disclosure of all pictures for a fixed price.
step 3: In order to gain publicity for her picture/ video set, Suzy advertises her protected page and gets people to send BTC to her address.
step 4: Once the target BTC amount is met, Suzy's hidden profile will be opened to the public. Public can also help advertise Suzy's page to get more donations.
step 5: Suzy gets paid and people get her nudies :).

Contracts and Bitcoin :)

Btw its called a group show :p and if you release it for all it creates a "free rider" problem (a general concept nothing to do with prawn industry lol ) . You really should "surf" online more often and take a break from the forums  ;). Seen similar concepts being proposed .
