I will add more options if they get a +1  (or if I feel dumb for not including them already)  ;D

So hold off on your vote if you think of something else.

How about "Stationery / Business Needs"?  That's the first one to come to mind for me, since I'm thinking about starting a small bitcoin-for-cash business when I go back to university.

added  :)

I was originally going to put "office supplies", but I realized that already a lot of the trading going on in BTC is for a more general category of things required to run a business - advertising, web hosting, logo design, etc.  Hard to sum all that up in just a few words.

What's that website that lists all the services offered in bitcoins ( i mean... not the bitcoin.it).

I look at the links on people's signatures then I can never remember the addresses or where I found those websites

"Stationary / Office Supplies" brings to mind office supply stores like Office Depot, Kinkos, etc. - in my mind at least.

I chose Food/Supermarket but to be honest I'd like to spend them on real estate. Lots and lots of real estate.

"rent and utilities" is the elephant in the room

Yes -- "Housing and utilities" might be better since it covers mortgage payments too.  :)

Electricity for mining :P

I added electricity and mortgage, but they are different classes of goods, so the tough choice will have to be made.  ;)

Freaking poker, go go go go go.

I was thinking that someone could make some saloon software that keeps track of what people at the table should pay each other.  Then the players could just pay each other in bitcoin, bypassing any central pot (and therefore no easy target).  The software could be flash or what not, and could be added to any site.

The players would have to trust each other to pay what is due after each hand/round/whatever.  Sort of a cyberpunk meets wild west scene.

That would have some use, but I'd just as soon trust the site or even 1 person at the table instead of having to worry about each individuals rep. I actually really like the host idea. He drums up interest in a game/format/time and holds the cash and takes a cut.

Does anyone know decent play money software that will allow private games and such?

Delivery service.

Mucho extra points for anonymous and secure.

To co-incide with this, bitcoin base drop box that others can deliver to you.

Poker: betco.in
Join us... Sometimes the tables sit empty, but there are usually players in the evening.

Did you try silkroad? Haha, I kid.

All of the above?
 ;D

I imagine my exchange with you would go something like this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y70vcs3oV14).

Votes

I wish to change my vote to hookers and blow   :D

hmm... how to word that correctly...

how about "companion / relaxation services"

and

"viagra / medicines"   ;D

i wish there was a way to allow people to change their vote.  i don't know of any.   :-\

Freedom.

computer hardware

food, food, food. Until you can exchange BTC for food, BTC will be forever dependent on currency exchange. If you want BTC to replace your country's currency, start farming.

If I could buy a house and pay a mortgage with Bitcoin, I would love my life.

Lol, if you borrow half a house worth of btc you are not going to be loving life for long.

Just noticed there were 11 votes for Gold/Commodities -- I have silver on offer if anyone is interested.  Gold is a possibility as well. 

I'd like to be able to buy my luxury yacht and private jet for bitcoins someday  ;D

I wish I could buy XXX with bitcoin...

Oh, wait...

I would like to pay my taxes, fishing license fees, automobile registration fees, police protection fees (http://www.abc4.com/news/local/story/Thousands-not-paying-bill-for-Unified-Police/ppL2eHaCFU2oBEjEtU5UAA.cspx) and parking tickets with bitcoin.

In the near term, I'd be more than happy with just being able to pay my electric bill without a postage stamp or a $3 "conveince fee"

With electricity a mining rig can become selfsuficient.

What about a physical mailbox?

Imagine having an anonymous address that you can ship anonymous goods to using anonymous currency.

this is a local arrangement, but I have seen it done.

Some decades ago I knew a guy who operated a pirate radio station. He attached a mailbox to the wall of a derelict house, and it worked perfectly for many years as an anonymous mailing address.

I second that! I have tiger blood in me and it demands lots of blow and good bitchez..lol j/k

OK, but seriously I want to buy a new laptop (high end gaming laptop) with bitcoins...that's my wish for now.

Just added "clothes" to the poll.  (Doh!)

I'm tempted to reset the poll since I added new categories - so that people can recast their vote.

Should I?

I emailed these guys http://www.bytelove.com/ yesterday about accepting bitcoin. We'll see what they say..
