During the last days I started hacking together a little online-wallet and thought some of you might be interested.

It is based on the bitcoind RPC API for handling accounts and adds custom labels stored in database.

If you want to send coins to a labeled address, just start typing the label and it will autocomplete.

It is a Ruby/Rails application released under the MIT license, so you can setup your own online wallet or even run it locally and use it instead of the default client UI.

Note that this is just a very early development version which still needs a lot of work.

Project/Source: http://open.sourceagency.org/projects/webtc
Demo (testnet): http://webtc.interesthings.de
(There is a demo Account: foo@bar.baz / password, but feel free to create new accounts, the email doesn't have to exist)

Feedback, bug reports, patches and donations welcome

and now bitmarket is down

oh, i'm sorry! somehow git didn't fetch the tag at first (had to pass --tag) 

two little suggestions:
- tag these minor releases in git, too
- sign tags with gpg (git tag -s -u <email> <tag>)

would probably help those of us compiling from source being a little bit more sure that it's actually the right source, that is definitively supposed to work.

of course we still have to trust gavin (and his key) but its a whole lot better than trusting github, or whatever place one clones the git from

I think being able to make paypal payments to other people would be a very big thing!
but i don't use paypal myself, so i don't know whats the established way merchants match incoming transactions - if its automated you most likely have to register your paypal email there?

being a web dev, i prefer simple/functional layouts myself, but i often experience 'novice' users being alienated by those 'little' things

also, just out of curiosity, why did you make an extra site for this and not add it as features to the existing coinpal?

last but not least, i've got ~100 BTC through coinpal (using friend/family paypals) and everything went fine; thank you!

I think they wouldn't even bother trying on the technical side. They'd probably just 'outlaw' the use of bitcoin for commerce and suddenly no legitimate business would think about accepting it :/

Or is there something that stops them from 'forbidding a currency' in general?

This is really great, the perfect UI for a phone!

I just tested the new version on the demo page and the account handling looks great.
Unfortunately, there seems to be a problem with sending, it always says "Invalid account name"...

Just wanted to let you know. Again, great work, and many thanks, tcatm!

looks like this is the block # until it is waiting before considering it confirmed?
(looks normal for me too)

ah, i see.
but does this explain the high estimated reward? if the pool were to find a block now would i receive that amount?
if so, it must be to the loss of someone finding shares before the renormalization? or what am i missing here?

The score and shares just reset. Last time i checked:

Total score of current round:   442423595.2236
Shares contributed in current round:    304454

now:

Total score of current round:   6541.9620
Shares contributed in current round:   307685

Current round duration:   6:28:05

also my estimated reward went up to >4 BTC again, quickly falling now.
nothing added to unconfirmed reward.

It was falling before it found the hash, from >9 to ~5 in a few minutes.

btw. the forum header still says "News: Version 0.3.18 is now available."

Hi there! First post, but I've been lurking around here for a while now and also mining on this pool for a few weeks with one not-so-fancy gpu.

I just experienced the strangest thing; After I had stopped the miner for a while I looked on the account page and it showed >9BTC estimated reward, with 5 shares found in a round that was going for >2 hours!!
However, after my card found the next hash, it went back to ~0.008, as I would have expected in the first place.

Just wanted to let you know; maybe others have experienced this as well? Might have something to do with the score computation? The 5 shares I had must have been very early in the round..
Unfortunately I didn't look what the score was at that time :/

Also, I wanted to say thank you for the great service!
