Sorry for answering late. Unfortunately I have only limited time for amazing Bitcoins. I really appreciate your feedback. I fixed the issue with the favicon. I understand that is confusing due to the similarity of the FQDNs. I was just lazy and this favicon seems to be widely used for Bitcoin sites I'll have a look into the JS issues ASAP. I agree, that it should be usable without Java Script. I do additional server side checking, but I'll have a look if it is possible to post duplicates if JS is disabled. Yes, an email address is mandatory ATM. I thought it might be a good idea to send the links for removal or editing as not everybody will bookmark the unique links for this tasks. I just don't want to end up with too much old records. But I think I'll give it a try to not make it mandatory. However I like your service and I'll add a FAQ suggesting your email service for people that want to stay anonymous and still want to add their address.

I'd like to present a free of charge Bitcoin related Job Board. Please have a look at: http://www.bitcoiners.org. If you like you can follow on Twitter: http://twitter.com/bitcoiners If things evolve I plan on posting some bounties on the Job Board for fun which will be announced on twitter. At the moment it is at a very early stage. It is possible to post job offers and it is possible to post an application if you are offering your skills for Bitcoin related tasks. In this stage the site only allows people to get in touch with each other. IMHO there is a demand as I saw various freelancing offers on this forum. Unfortunately I have no experience running Job Boards so far. Thus this is more or less an experiment for me. I really need input on how to improve the plattform. Some ideas are in my pipeline, but as I'm new to Bitcoin and its community I think this is the right time to ask if somenon has a feature he wants to see. I'm really looking forward for you feedback.

I don't know the PHP API, but a 500 error from a webserver means: "Woah, something went wrong but I can't tell what". Given that the request works if you hardcode the parameters I'd guess it is more likely, that the variables you use contain values, that are not correct. Try to output them for debugging purpose before you use sendfrom(). From what I see (guessed) the data types should be:
$id Integer No quotes $received_address String Quotes $amount Float No Quotes
I hope this helps.

Very interesting reading. At the moment I handle Bitcoins like every highly speculative stock. Don't have them if you are not prepared to loose all of your money. On the other hand Bitcoins have a major advantage over highly speculative stocks: It is much more fun and the community is more friendly However I demand, that someday Bitcoins have to be too big to fail as well

Try:
sudo iptables -L -n
on a shell. It should look like:
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination
Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination
Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination
If you see something else there is a host based firewall up and running.

This is a KISS-Solution for a shared PC. I like it. However you could add some additional security by using /dev/shm as traget for the unencrypted wallet. With appropriate permissions and a link from your bitcoin directory you make sure that the unencrypted wallet never is written to a non-volatile memory. Your solution unintentional might leave a copy of your wallet on your physical disk or in the filesystems journal.
But nevertheless I won't use any shared PC for my main wallet. But for a small wallet for day-to-day transactions it is a straightforward solution.

Thank you very much for the hardware comparison link. I always thought my 9800 GTX is a quiet decent GPU Seems I was mistaken. I think I go for two ATI card and hope to get a good offer on ebay for the 9800

Hi at the moment I'm working on a board for bitcoin related jobs ( http://www.bitcoiners.org). However it is free and much simpler than your idea. Perhaps you are interested in working together in order to implement your ideas as additional premium service? Let me know if I you are interested in further information.

Hi all,
I'm a Systems Architect and an occasional gamer but for some strange reason I never was too interested in GPUs in general as I was more focused on server hardware. I hope someone can verify or correct my assumptions. I'm using a GeForce 9800 GTX in an PCIe x16 Slot. Now I'm thinking about buying a second GPU for constant mining. My Motherboard has a second PCIe Slot. It's form factor is x12 but it only uses four lanes. I understand this is a bad thing for gaming, as the bandwidth is too small to transfer huge amounts of textures and stuff into the graphics card RAM. But for mining we only use the GPU cycles in order to number crunch numbers, right? We are not moving tons of bits to or from the graphics card? Is my assumption correct, that the amount of lanes does not matter as long as a x16 card fits into the slot?
Furthermore is it nessecary to buy a second GPU of the same make or can I choose to buy any other GPU even one with ATI chip? If so, do you have recommendations what gives the best Mhash/$ ratio?
Thank you in advance

AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+ running on Ubuntu 10.04 amd64. I'm running the CPU miner only on one core, because I end up with 100% CPU usage on the other core if I run pocblm Out of curiosity I just booted Windows Vista Home 64 on the same maschine and installed pocblm. The CPU usage is between 0 and 3% Furthermore Windows outperforms Linux by the factor 10 (3.5 vs. 33 Mhash/s) I don't like that

Sounds interesting. Here are my questions: - Is a Domain included (if so which TLDs) or is it nessecary to redirect A-Records to your server?
- Is it possible to use IM Gateways to other IM Systems with Prosody.im and do you offer such a gateway?
- How is your server connected to the internet?

thermal problem at only 65C on a 5770? seems a bit low to me (i don't have a 5770 though).
I have to admit, that I don't have a 5770 but my old GeForce 9800GTX showed a similar behaviour and it didn't overheat too. After removing a bunch of dust from the card the problem was solved

Sounds like a thermal problem. Have you checked all your fans if they are working or if there is dust on the heat sinks?

Maybe there's still benefits to using it installed on your PC though, I'm not sure.
the benefit of running it locally is you don't need to trust someone else to hold your wallet. the disadvantage is you need to manage it all yourself, such as keeping up with the block chain, backing up your wallet, etc. it's just a matter of which tradeoffs matter more to you. You could use a wallet service for your every day transactions and still keep a local wallet. Transfer your coins from the wallet service to your own harddrive only once in a while if they exceed or fall below a certain threshold. It will take more time to catch up on latest block on the local harddrive if you didn't start bitcoin for a while but at least you can schedule at which time your computer slows down.

Sounds like a pretty good concept. But at the moment i guess the revenue is not high enough. This idea needs too many ressources (in terms of hardware and working hours) and there are way too less potential customers. It might become a great business idea in a few years if Bitcoin is accepted by many people.
