If you want to send them a wire transfer you contact them on fundraising@gnome.org . So I guess we could use that.

No, we simply want to give them bitcoin...

I am working on adding 3D CAD modeling to my skillset. That mean, I am working on being able to design things that can be printed.

It also mesh well with my programming knowledge.  Grin

Ok, I think we need to find out the email address first. We can use the same template in the EFF campaign.
3765  Economy / Marketplace / Re: The Bitcoin Times on: January 23, 2011, 04:49:24 AM
I am a little confused by the changing format/organization of the magazine.  How often is it released?  Are there still panels of judges? Will they be free or will they cost BTC to get the current issues?  What can a contributer expect in terms of compensation?  I am toying with the idea about making a few contributions.  Could you PM me with what you might need and I will see if I can provide anything useful.

It will be released next week. I suspect, Wednesday. No panel of judges, and hopeful there won't be. Fabianhjr still didn't say if the next issue are free but I will fight for a free issue if necessary. Right now, we're splitting the ads revenue between us, equally. (He do the packaging and I get advertisers on board)

PM me your email address and we will see how it will work out.

The impact it have on forum traffic is next to nil.
3767  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Bitcoin has gone over $0.40 on mtgox on: January 23, 2011, 03:19:39 AM

Actually you are right. If by the time the bubble bursts and we have sufficient goods and services that can be purchased with BitCoin

So, what is this number for this "suffcient goods and services"? The only way we find out is through the market process.
3768  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Bitcoin has gone over $0.40 on mtgox on: January 23, 2011, 03:07:44 AM
The assumption of "tomorrow's" prices is actually "today's" price. But people are hoping that in a year's time the price is NOT what it is today.

Woe unto the speculators.

You seem to think it will not be backed up by goods and services but we don't actually know how to figure out how much goods and services to sustain a price.
3769  Economy / Marketplace / Re: The Bitcoin Times on: January 22, 2011, 11:54:26 PM
I am not sure what value we could add by publishing content that appears everywhere else.(no offense to S3052)

In any case, I have completed three articles submitted for peer review by fabianhjr. With an article by fabianhjr, we should have 4 articles altogether for next issue.
3770  Economy / Marketplace / Re: The Bitcoin Times on: January 22, 2011, 04:59:52 PM
edit: just finished reading it, it was kind of sparse on content but very enjoyable and pretty good. I like the whole state of bitcoin in the first part, maybe that could be done every issue? My only suggestion is more content and more frequent releases. Other than that, rock on!

That was also my suggestion as well. So I managed to convince fabanhjr to temporary change to this format.

The next issue will be free to download, I hope.

This sounds rather unethical.
3772  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Kiba's Art Thread on: January 22, 2011, 03:05:42 PM
No art today. I lost one hour of work due to GIMP crashing. Cry Need to set autosave...

It all reaches a natural equilibrium to relate its true price. But the worries are if the price is based on speculation or actual value at that time. Speculators will be the doom of BitCoin.

What ya talking about? We got a big crash from .50 cents at one time. It didn't doomed bitcoin.

A magazine to write for? Who is paying in btc for articles? What kind of articles are they looking for?

fabianhjr and I are working on content for next week's issue for The Bitcoin Times. We also already have two advertisers lined up.

We're the only writers at the moment, since nobody else wants to write for the magazine.

It sounds like he listen to Bruce Wagner's radio interview.

I think too little of bitcoin activity is around goods and services whike most is around exchanging.

Exchanging is a very valuable purpose, especially in a world where it is hard to get money into bitcoin. I also think the number of goods and services are increasing.

You can already pay your phone bills directly in bitcoin, advertise on sites, tip people, magazine to write for, and so on.

I felt like I am getting riches from these sources of income since I now have 469.22 BTC.

I think GIMP is the winner here.
3778  Economy / Marketplace / Re: What is the best data for BTC-USD conversion rates? on: January 21, 2011, 06:18:09 PM
The price is much closer to paypal dollars than it is LRUSD.
3779  Economy / Economics / Re: Efficient Market Hypothesis on: January 21, 2011, 06:12:09 PM
I doubt most people here have their life savings in bitcoin.

But I don't doubt there are many here whose only life saving are in bitcoins.

I have some saving in dollars, but I fear for the time when hyperinflation kicks in.
