the only thing web 2.0 means, is that it is user generated content. a forum is purely user generated content.
Have you been to my forum yet? I dont think you have.... I have programmed different feeds, including new music/videos/movies and content from all over the internet. Everything is categorized neatly, and guaranteed to be up to date, and all replys, and posts are tweeted to thousands of users subscribing to me now, over several hundred accounts. Most of the people in my forum don't POST. They simply come in to read the content, that you seem to think I dont have sir. EDIT: You might wana check this post, and see what led me to post my site before you continue. I went to the 131 bit coin post for new businesses , to see if they were still offering that program to new businesses. Aparently their not, but I got into a very interesting discussion with bitcoinminer, and what he told me was true. Why keep your business a secret if it can help bitcoins in the long run? http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=4667.msg202154#msg202154Now while hes right about that, you folks can't simply expect me to just pound bitcoins without pushing anything to my site for all my time and work? Thats preatty damn selfish if you ask me. You wan't me to make a post saying I am supporting bitcoins on my site, yet you don't want me to post the link to the site? Does the word forum simply turn you guys off that much?

Industry expert? lol. Let me guess.. in marketing.
I do web design,internet-marketing, seo, pc repairs, and coding. I am preatty much a do it all kind of person. But still learning, and forever will be. I am not claiming superiority to anyone, I just work 24/7 and know where I am going in life. Bitcoins are obviously going to be a major part of my future, and everything that I am planning in the future as far as businesses go, will involve them as a funding source..

I've never heard the term 'web 2.0' uttered by *anybody* who didn't work in marketing. It's meaningless.
For something to succeed it has to either do something new that people want (like bitcoin) or do something better than the existing methods (like twitter). User friendliness doesn't have a lot to do with it, really.. people will cope with a lot of crap when the alternative is worse. That *will* come to bitcoin, btw. Someone will write a friendly client.. there's no company here to direct it and absolutely no contradiction with this forum concentrating on the technical details whilst someone currently unknown goes off and makes the killer UI.
You really have no idea what your talking about. You are arguing with an industry expert here bud. "The term Web 2.0 is associated with web applications that facilitate participatory information sharing, interoperability, user-centered design,[1] and collaboration on the World Wide Web. A Web 2.0 site allows users to interact and collaborate with each other in a social media dialogue as creators (prosumers) of user-generated content in a virtual community, in contrast to websites where users (consumers) are limited to the passive viewing of content that was created for them. Examples of Web 2.0 include social networking sites, blogs, wikis, video sharing sites, hosted services, web applications, mashups and folksonomies." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_2.0When I use the word web2.0, I mean EXACTLY what it means on wiki.. Forums by nature are not web2.0, unless you do many mods, and even then, they stink, because they are not properly connected, designed, and/or tested. Which is sooo 1998... AOL Homepages? Geocities? yea those were all web 2.0, how about you advertise some early web 3.0 stuff? but I highly doubt you could compare with zombo.com, the first true web 3.0 offering. also, forums by their very nature are PURELY web 2.0 if you are an 'industry expert' the industry you work for needs their money back. Not when their boxed into a tight community of people. Sure in essence it's web 2.0, but its still confined to its own system. What I did is I plugged everything in. Now there is still alot of work to do, but I think I have something really unique, that of course all of you are going to hate on me for, for simply not thinking about it yourselves ;p lol. It's the facebook effect: hate on everything you could have done but didn't think of yourself! Look at my number 1 competitor btw lol... this would have been spam http://tweetsocial.com - #1 - in google. Sometimes ideas and hard work, are worth more than experience and calculated decisions.

Thx for the correction btw, I knew that but I didn't think I needed 12th grade grammer on a quick web forum replys.
Why not? GrammAr is always important, as is spelling. If you think it's below you, then you're doing a disservice to the people reading your posts. That's true Rob, the "txting" revolution has gotten the best of me! Didn't you hear all the cool kids are doing it! ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif)

Even if it the best forum ever, it remains spam.
Then thanks for contributing to my "spam". Haters don't realize that the more they hate the better it is for the person being hated on. You’re an intelligent person, and you know it's not spam, and that tweetforum is actually a really smart idea/ with a kick ass design, and it WILL help awareness of bitcoins... But you don't want to lose and admit you prejudged me and my site, and so you turn a reluctant blind eye. Here’s something I came up with, that may be helpful to you. It's the three stages of bigotry 1:Attack your victim. 2:Get shut down by your victim 3:Go into remission and dispute all truth. STOP AT STEP 1..

My forum IS THAT. You don't understand tweet forum, and you will look like a fool at the end of this. Your the one that should delete your posts.... You hater.
I'm sure you meant, "you're". That's short for "you are". "Your" is possessive of me. So, you're the one that should delete your posts. I'm not a hater, I just don't like spammers. And people that advertise their "Tweetforum" that has advertising on the front page. I'm sure you're sharing that advertising revenue (should there ever be any) with the community, right? No? Heavens. Could that be why you started it? I'll just stay here, where there aren't any ads, except from the Trolls. Well I actually do have a revenue sharing plan for the tweetforum community, I am working on a auto revenue share system this month. But even if I didn't pay, I am offering a service to everyone on twitter. Alot of these people who sign up with me get their updates on their phones, most of them don't even know TF is an actual forum, cause they are ussually going straight to the threads. I can't tell you the time it has taken me to get everything to work the way it has, and to get this many followers to just give me a shot, and listen to what I have to say.... Thx for the correction btw, I knew that but I didn't think I needed 12th grade grammer on a quick web forum replys.

1. Instant BAN on all known scammers/spammers/beggers/ and trolls. 2. Instant BAN on anyone trying to sell illegal weapons, drugs, or child pornography, this includes the advertising of such anonymous marketplaces that make these transactions even possible. 3. A fully moderated forum, guaranteeing a fair & honest discussion. 4. A highly advanced web 2.0 structure, that allows you to connect with all the social media avenues on every single post, including your twitter, facebook, and myspace. (tweetforum.. get it yet? ) 5. Posting guidelines that will ensure that every new post that is made, is a quality one. 6. Minimal advertisements.
I LOLd. #3 through #6 are silly. Good luck man. Silly huh? Go to disclose.tv and see their ads there. Or how about warriorforum.com, spam everywhere. Do you go to alot of forums? Glad I'm making so many new friends with this post. ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif)

wow people still use the phrase "web 2.0"?
Consumers do. That is the biggest problem with this community. You guys are so reluctant to make anything user friendly. People, who make sites user friendly are the ones who end up with all the money. Look at flippa, facebook, twitter, linkedin, and paypal. All sites that really made a big deal about user friendliness, and ease, and now they are on top. EDIT: I am mainly talking about the wallet system in this post. Everything else about the bitcoins seems simple enough.

I never said that your work is spam - but your announcement here certainly is!
Agreed. You led with a URL. Also, the one thing you cannot provide users of your forum: content and users Hence the reason you had to spam here to create an avenue for people to find you and maybe talk over there instead of here. Guess what that does? It fractures the community. I'm confident the owners/moderators of this forum are taking steps not only to control the trolls and off topic/useless posts. But they are also looking to upgrade the infrastructure to provide many, if not all, of the same features you're offering, and of course, they can also provide: content and users Thats true, bitcoins may not need me to be successful. It really may not need anyone. But dude seriously have you gone to the site? I didn't think leading with a url would turn people off so much.. I need you to see how much I charge for a header spot http://tweetforum.com/adpro/?sa=buyadspace , and then get back to me. I seriously thought I was helping out.

So feeding bitcoin news/awareness to over 50,000+ followers on twitter is spam? What are your acomplishments sir? What are YOU doing to help the community other than trolling other peoples threads.

Those "new bitcoin forum" spam is way more annoying than "sell sell sell" messages.
If you went to tweetforum you wouldn't look like such a fool for calling it spam..

As an investment medium I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. Not even an MBA graduate could take this market by the horns. Money can manipulate everything, so if you don't have none be very careful. If your poor you shouldn't even be looking to invest in the first place. Do some reserach into mining, which is a much more realistic path for the people of this forum.

I think developers are going ot have to start hardcoding exchange rates into their prices. I don't know how sites like bitmunchies.com do it. They must have sometype of system that auto updates depending on exchange rates.

I think MTGOX is going to have to come up with a system where they can have private accounts. And where they can gurantee up to a certain amount (simular to how banks operate today). But thats not even enough, there needs to be a (dare i say) Paypal type website, that secures funds, and prevents frauds with the use of bitcoins. Not everyone wants to live in a reckless society. I personally would feel much saver leaving my coins to a multi-milliondollar entity that can get results done, compared to a bunch of nerds (no pun intended.I'm prob the biggest one in here). There are alot of things people can do to secure their wallets, but the general population (dare I say again) is simply to slow to understand the simple concept of enrypted thumb drives. Imagine explaining that to an 80 year old grandma whos looking to diversify her porfolio with a bit of digital gold. Lets hope the market can correct this.

Millions of new customers who don't want to exchange their bitcoins to dollars and pay taxes, wait forever, and most of the time simply loose money. In the future it will simply be more convinient to keep your coins in your account, and only investors will be exchanging money on a weekly basis. Things will stabalize as soon as people find out what this technology really is.... Bittorrent on steroids. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)
