Bitcoin Forum

Google Plus social network have launched.  https://plus.google.com/  Is there a way that a bitcoinj or bitcoinjs web application ( https://github.com/bitcoinjs/node-bitcoin-p2p/issues/8 seperating the bulky blockchain held centrally from every users wallet held decentrally ) can be interfaced on the Google Plus web platform to allow Bitcoin digital goods transfers between friends on the Google Plus social web interface?  Knowing that Google is more friendly towards Bitcoin digital goods with the Google developed http://code.google.com/p/bitcoinj/ than other social networks like Facebook.

It would be helpful if the user just keeps his spendable (of small bitcoin value) wallet.dat file privately on his Google Plus account and reload it by uploading a new spendable wallet.dat once empty or buying Bitcoin digital goods into his online held wallet.dat at Google Plus or receive Bitcoin digital goods from friends into his online held wallet.dat at Google Plus.  When doing a transfer to a friend the application can hide the complicated Bitcoin addresses and just shows his friends names from his address book where he associated his friends Google Plus account with a Bitcoin address.  The Bitcoin digital goods' value to be transferred can also be shown in a national currency of choice (calculated at current market prices from major dealers) to simplify value of transfer comprehension for the average user.

Simple Bitcoin digital goods transfer interface example:

Transfer Bitcoin digital goods to:
                          Select Friend         Select value expressed in       Key in Bitcoin Value to transfer
                          John                     GBP                                   16.49 USD or 0.99 BTC
                          Suzy                    AUD                                      ^                ^
                          Sam                     USD                                      |                 |
                          Chris                    JPY                                     user           application converts
                                                     INR                                    key this       this on the fly from
                                                     EUR                                     in              online data available

Oh fuck, it's on.

Bitcoin users will help push this just because not only does it get people using Bitcoin, it will kind of get them away from Facebook lol

Right so my real identity is now linked directly to my e-mail?

There are more than one type of Bitcoin user:

- The legit, privacy concerned user
- The legit, no privacy required user

and the unsavoury

- Illegitimate, privacy concerned user

- Mixed personality types, having a persona ( or wallet.dat file ) for more than one of the above categories
