Probably sell a few things... Get my BTC amount up a bit and then buy some things

I will probably also be asking questions about how miners work so I can make my own miners (and related things)

Hello everyone,

I am fairly new to Bitcoin, but I've got a few miners running on Slush's Pool and will soon be looking at making my own custom miner. Getting my head around the whole protocol for mining at the moment, I srota get it, but there's a few blanks that I'm sure I'll work out in time. I will also be documenting the protocol as I write bits for it and releasing them somewhere. If anyone has any suggestions on things I could read to help I would be grateful.

I'm also making a simple installer,front end and manager for Namecoin under windows, although that's just something I'm doing to make my own life easier, so that'll be done when it's done.

I look forward to being part of this community once I have broken free of the "Newbies" section.
