I love bitmit. I'm in the process of moving and putting a lot of items on that site. Check my signature for a referral link.
The site has bugs, but the developer is very helpful. I've had two items sold, one went great, the other had an AWOL buyer.

I think this is a good idea

Major crime-syndicate adoption A celebrity endorsement would be nice... Kanye rapped about euros as a "safe-haven" currency. If he rapped about bitcoin it would spike interest. Nerds are "in" right now they're "super cool."

It looks like the operator of the site is new to bitcoin but is developing and has been doing it for about a month. He said there was a glitch this morning, but its back-up. I read this in the stickied Introduce yourself thread.

I know you might have differing opinions on reddit or redditors, but reddit is a very large site with a lot of very technically and politically savvy visitors. Redditors' values are in-line with bitcoin's -- SOPA, the occupy movement, banks, etc.. I'm convinced the average redditor would be very interested in bitcoin if they knew what it was. I propose we set out a goal to make the front-page of major reddits. The ones we should aim for are r/TodayILearned, r/politics, r/trees, r/IamA, and r/technology. These sub-reddits often make the "all" category, and will be viewable to anyone logged into the site or not. - Topics in TIL could link to bitcoin related sites and mention de-regulated currency, SOPA, or any other bitcoin buzz-words.
- Topics in IamA could be along the lines of, "I was hacked and lost $25,000 in bitcoins, ask me anything," or, "I make a living off of bitcoins. Ask me (almost) anything." These are just examples.
- Topics in trees could link to that Gawker article or mention the Silk Road
These are some examples, and on the small-scale could introduce a few more people to bitcoin. On the large-scale, if one of the bitcoin related links went "viral" it would get tremendous exposure. It often depends on the title of the link. What do you guys think? If you post your reddit link in this thread, I will up-vote it to give it a better chance. Be sure to also visit the bitcoin reddit.

P2Pool. Decentralized pool. You are your own pool operator. You need to run a full Bitcoin client, and the p2pool software along with the mining program, but it's entirely worth it.
P2Pool is good for the decentralization of the network. It doesn't put the power in the hands of a few large pool operators.
You receive all your Bitcoins directly in your client, similar to what you are accustomed to with Eligius.
Plus a few guys are donating to the miners of P2Pool in the form of extra daily payments!
It's a little bit more difficult to set up, but runs great once you have it up and running. It's really a no-brainer.
I'm going to switch over too, the extra daily payments sounds great.

I think they narrowed it down to 1-2 people... I'll try to find an article I read.

The auction sub-forum is optional I think

Did anyone log all that information?
I would have loved to have started a question with, "So, Dalin, can I call you Dalin?..."
