Heh... this is a repost, and the article itself is a rehash of a previous item on NPR (from well over a month ago), which makes this thread a repost about a rehash  I figured you out, Piper67. You posted on this thread, not to just comment on the reposting of the rehashing, but knowing that I will come along to not only correct you (should have been: which makes this thread a rethread of a repost about a rehash), but to add an image. So here I is, to make sure I don't disappoint you. (BTW, nice post. Enjoy the image).  Bitcoin: An Idea Worth SpendingReally? A picture of a rethread? You sir (or ma'am) have a lot more time on your hands than me... sigh |

This might be a repost, not sure. Have you seen the front page of npr.org? "Should you bank on Bitcoin?"
How can these people be so negative? They get some law student from harvard and they say "bitcoin will not be there in x amount of years". How can anyone possibly say that?

I can't remember the name of the guy and his company but who was that guy at the conference that made the announcement that he was selling basically "anything" on his new site with coins? Anyone have that URL? I think it was basically an amazon of bitcoin.

I read Something Awful's Bitcoin thread (the one in GBS) for the same reason.
Same here, it’s a must read.  mind linking the thread? |

I thought being in manhattan it would be amazing connectivity but for me it's the opposite.
Have you never been in Manhattan before? Honestly, should generally be better today (weekend) than normal work hours. But yes, especially if you are on AT&T you are gonna have difficulties in NYC and San Francisco. never been before! it's horrible! ATT is worthless here |

I for one am not streaming because Internet service here is TERRIBLE! I've dropped 20 callsand can barely check my email. I thought being in manhattan it would be amazing connectivity but for me it's the opposite.

I want to go but I can only spend 1 day there. Can you please take an educated guess when the best day will be?
Also, is anyone kind enough to lend a room for the night?
me but you would have to crash on the floor and not be weird. I'm staying at the Roosevelt. |

Can we get this thread back on topic? I'm trying to get information regarding an event, not looking to read what should have been a private exchange or a new thread somewhere else.
Frankly I find the direction this topic has been taken to be very disrespectful not only to those who have been posting the off-topic messages, but to all of it's participants, readers, and the OP.
Mods, any way you can step in here?

One thing that helps me is two factor authentication on my gmail account. I have the google authenticator app on my iPhone. I would suggest others look into it as well.

Also can anyone tell me which is closer/better to fly into? JFK or LaGuardia? We choose JFK but I think I can change it in time if JFK sucks or something.

I would think they are REALLY busy getting this conference together. Bought my passes today! Yay!

there was a show after the mybitcoin one. it was the one with that journalist chick on it.

Uploaded.to accepts bitcoins as of last month. They're a pretty big player, up there with Filesonic, though not as large as Rapidshare or Megaupload.
If we could somehow get these guys on board and interface with bitpay I can really see this as being a HUGE boost to the economy. |

Megaupload, fileserve, rapidshare, filesonic?
I'm just thinking it would be awesome for the community if we could find someone with any type of contacts at these companies to start accepting bitcoin for their monthly fees. If anyone has any contacts with these companies please let me know. I'd be willing to pay for their senior management to attend the bitcoin conference bruce is having.

"In contrast, there’s no significant community of people who conduct commerce exclusively (or even primarily) in Bitcions."
He didn't even proof read his article before posting.

Is PPS the way to go now with this new difficulty? jeze numbers are low
If you did proportional starting at the current difficulty, you'd still be 8% more ahead than PPS. Cheers, Kermee thanks kermee much appreciated |
