If you're looking for someone you know to trade with there's CoinTouch.com which uses your Facebook social network to find people you know wanting to trade.
2  Economy / Service Discussion / CoinTouch : Using your social network to match trades on: February 07, 2014, 07:07:31 AM
I'm interested to see what peoples views are on CoinTouch (www.cointouch.com) which uses your social network to find trades.

With the current MtGox issues CoinTouch seems like an exchange solution which is more in line with peer-to-peer systems because it doesn't need a central third party to hold your coins and allows you to judge who you're dealing with based on how well you know them. It makes things a little harder for large orders because you have to manually match up the orders with the amount you have to sell, but that can be an advantage if you're willing to take a lower price to deal with someone who you trust more.

Thoughts?
