Great idea, I have a project in the works that will address this problem and hopefully create a valuable service based economy for bitcoin.

My business partner and I are looking for not just a pool but someone to partner with us as our technical lead to run the pool.

So our bounty of $100 will go up a lot and also include a profitshare if we can find someone who is interested in being the technical lead on a pool project.

We can handle the frontend design, customer service, any costs that come up, marketing & advertising, etc.

I tried to boot off of this yesterday and it was just an orgy of errors.

We've got a decent budget for the development and hosting for this project, we plan on spending money on marketing and advertising as well. We're hoping to find a technical lead who will be able to manage the technical issues as a partner in the project, but if that person needs money instead we could work a deal like that out.

I've been at this for about 4 hours.

THIS GUIDE NEEDS TO BE REWRITTEN!

For the 32 bit version, it's got all the wrong file path names and commands strewn throughout - for a Ubuntu newb like me I want to smash my screen.

Now I got it semi working, but when I run poclbm it only displays my CPU, not my graphics cards.

How do I get the gpus to show?

Maybe I should make you a bitcoin with (.)(.) as the symbol =P

What is a FOOS project?

I'm not sure if I can offer the bounty in Ruby on Rails, my front end coders only know PHP - I'll have to talk to them about RoR and post back later.

Those features look good though.

Nice job dude!

Can you do one themed around the matrix =)

Hey guys, I'm designing some bitcoin graphics for some of my up and coming bitcoin projects, and I thought I would give some away to contribute to any bitcoin entrepreneurs out there who may need some graphics help.

Feel free to use any of these!

It's mainly concepts for other bitcoin denominations, and bitcoin logos.

Anyone working on a pool rotator which would even out the load more among all the pools to help spread the ghash around?

Awesome journey! This should be filmed.

Thanks a lot I'll defintely take a look at this.

It's cheaper/easier for me to use USD right now until we get our operation going =)

subscribed! Any pushpool experts want to consult with helping someone start a pool?

awesome, subscribed to follow progress.

A lot of people have a mental block about exchanging money for bitcoins rather than exchanging money for hardware, which can find bitcoins.

If bitcoin fails, at least you still have the hardware to sell to gamers.

If bitcoin takes off into the $100/btc level relatively quickly, you would have been better to buy.

any chance it'll work with iphone or bb?

I'll be paying in USD though so don't count it as BTC =)

jerfelix - how did you figure this out, and how did you figure out that is when a bubble is forming?
