This thread sure does bring back memories.

In the news today: Justin Bieber Greeting Cards Now Available

Quote
Justin Bieber fans have been rewarded once again. True "Beliebers" can now pick up Justin Bieber greeting cards from Hallmark at Walmart stores nationwide.

The cards will also be available starting in May at Hallmark Gold Crown stores and other stores where Hallmark products are sold. The cards range in price from $2.57-$9.99, and range in size from 19-by-13-inch "Big Time" cards down to "Itty Bitty Greetings," which are perfect for slipping into lunchboxes, according to a news release.

Now, imagine if those same cards had bitcents in them, like gifts from "The Bieb".

this would be mighty great wouldn't it ^^ Grin

If you do migrate to Wordpress please send me a PM and I will be able to code something for the following weekend - a fully working widget for a blog-site. I also provide help setting up Wordpress blogs on hosting. Also send a PM on this if you like.

Thanks!

Ok, I'll let you know if I need it for WP.  Just needing some sort of Mt.Gox Price widget for my website @ the moment. This gaget seems to be struggling ... Cry

If you mean regurgitating news  Coinbits.com for sure is an example....then  thebitcointrader.com , bitcoinmoney.com all tend to say the same thing sometimes but then once in awhile you'll get something new on them . I like the articles coming out  bitcoinmedia.com & bitcoinmagazine.net these are my 2 fav's right now.
Thanks for the list.

Coinbits.com seems to be solely focused on reddit.  I can't find anything but reddit reposts on that site.
thebitcointrader.com seems to write his own stuff, not regurgitate.  His most recent post was March 3rd, 2012.
bitcoinmoney.com seems to pick selective articles and comment on them.
bitcoinmedia.com has lots of original content - very cool!
bitcoinmagazine.net - lots of original content as well, of course.

So, none of them offer a comprehensive, "every Bitcoin-related article is here" listing of news.  That's what I'm after with this site - showing everyone what the world is saying about Bitcoin, and not missing anything related to it.  The best correlation I've seen so far is, like I said before, the "Bitcoin press hits, notable sources" thread here.  But even that thread doesn't catch all related news articles, sometimes missing interesting articles, etc.

Maybe I'm the only one who is interested in such a site existing though?  Cheesy

I don't think I'm a decent enough writer to come up with a lot of my own content, but I think adding commentary, where appropriate, is a good idea.

You bring up good points I suppose I phrased it wrong - those sites have the same content but worded differently respectively to their owners  so you are  right  coinbits is automated from reddit true.

I'm starting to get a better idea of what you are saying please do it! lol   sort of a "one stop shop" for ALL the news regarding Bitcoin would this be right ? If so yes please do this.  You are right that thread contains like all the most recent bitcoin related articles I get what you are saying now.  Yes, I'm not a good writer either! haha .... I say just come up with a comprehensive site  with a RSS feed also Tongue    then I will cry with joy! lol

I think we have a lot more news sources in Bitcoin than we do generators of news. So if you want to do a news site, make it one that serves to reach out to non-Bitcoiners who need to move funds online or have found a reason to do so.

Maybe make it digital currency news and talk about Bitcoin as the predominant digital currency or (huge self-interest alert) make a Bitcoin downloadable goods news site...mentioning and reviewing new items that are becoming available for Bitcoin (on coinDL). Smiley

That's my 0.02 BTC.
I suppose the inspiration for this idea in the first place came from the "Bitcoin press hits, notable sources" thread.  I thought, why not make a site to accomplish a similar purpose - showing everyone what the world was saying about Bitcoin, but being a bit more comprehensive about it?  And giving more options for finding that information.  So far, the only similar service I've seen is Bitcoin Reporter on twitter, and that service doesn't seem to be updated too regularly... and it's only on twitter.

Thanks for the feedback though - I'll certainly consider doing maybe a "reviews" site of various Bitcoin digital and physical products.  Wink

You should do something similar to the thread you mentioned but maybe tie in a little bit of your own take on things  or add your own news story like on top or something so it gives some of your own branding because there are alot of sites regurgitating the same news over & over ....just me 2 bitcents Smiley
What other sites are there doing this for Bitcoin news?  Or do you just mean in general?

The Google Gadget can be embedded by clicking on the Webmaster tools button in the top right.

EDIT: Should I PM you if I have created one?

Yes, PM me when you do create one and if I come across any source for it I'll PM you it. Also, I'll check out the google gadget one because I have that in my chrome browser here ...

There's little you can do besides this thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=483.0
It isn't the best way to handle non-paying borrowers (defaulters,scammers or otherwise) but that's the best we have at the moment.

Advice to a person who may default-Please be honest with your lenders so that you can at least work things out even if you're on the verge of defaulting instead of just running off with the money and not admitting it as it'll bite you back later (scammer tag,anyone?) and cost you dear (lenders can make huge losses). Normally in the real world,if a person has trouble keeping up with repayments,then you can go to a credit union (in US and UK,possibly other countries too) to help sort things out or a person who is willing to arbitrate on your behalf (either for a fee or for free). We should have more services like that in the Bitcoin world.I know I'm willing to offer this in my spare time for a small fee when I'm able (once the business becomes official in about 2 months time due to other business ventures taking me time to sort out.)



You're # of posts says 666 ?  Shocked
