I'm actually going to be working with a couple mates of mine to organize a computer show in the city we live in and we've been planning on accepting BTC for ticket sales.

I notice that most people aren't getting flocked because they accept it.
(Much like the diners club card - wtf is that)
But, there is no cost and it's so simple.
There's no reason not to do it.
Also, it's good exposure - the more people who see it and wonder what it is.  (I put the bitcoin logo in my ads)
Being an activist type, felt good.

Integrated website payment for this next time too.

I've been doing shopping carts and merchant accounts for years.
It's one of the most expensive rackets on the planet with fees, percentages and PCI compliances. (which is the biggest scam of all)

Bitcoin integration took about 5 minutes, no paperwork - fricken simple.
