Hi. suranyami here. I'm a Ruby developer.

I'm interested in mining, and also going to look into any opportunities for creating web services that use the BTC ecosystem.

I ran a little experiment mining on my (now quite old) desktop, but the graphics card was getting abysmal throughput. After about 2 weeks I think I managed to earn a massive 0.0001 BTC.

So, now I'm eyeing off the Butterfly Labs ASICs. I put an order in for a Jalapeño... can't wait till it arrives.

Once I've given that a try, hopefully take a bigger plunge into ASICs.

I'm planning on using my Raspberry Pi as the controller.

If anyone has any ideas for BTC web services, I'd be interested in partnering up on the tech build side. I tend to use Rails, MongoDB, WebSockets, and lots of other groovy tech.
