I know It's not really my place to be complaining but as you know the bitcoin faucet ( http://freebitcoins.appspot.com/) has been down for quite a while due to them not having any coins because potentially somebody is abusing the system. Anyway I have tried to use the new bitcoin street faucet, ( http://faucet.bitcoin.st/) but I have had many problems  . At first it was a firewall problem (port 8333 being closed) now it's this! every time i put in a valid address and cellphone number it says: ***ERROR*** ERROR All I want to do is try out this exciting new currency then donate it back to the faucet when I'm done. Could anyone help me with this or give me a reason for it giving me an error, or possibly loan me 0.01 bitcoins? I don't mean to seem entitled at all, I'm just curious to try put this new system and if I like invest in some bitcoins. So, please let me know if they're any other bitcoin faucets out there that I could try. Any help much appreciated  . |

Start mining in a pool. In no time flat you'll have your bit penny. There isn't much you can learn by somebody just handing you a bitcent.
But if you want one to play with.. sure, post an address.. I'll pony up.

It's a Bitcoin that wears beat up jeans and a t-shirt and hangs out on the corner. It tends to smell a bit funny too  |

I believe you are correct. A bitnick would be 5cBits or 50 mbits I'm so very glad that bitcoin didn't start off using "credits" or "creds". That would have been very lame. |

I've spent .04 of my bitcoins on a bitcoin blackjack site ( http://btcjack.1btchost.com/) and have stopped at .2 bitcoins. Thanks for helping me when the faucets were down . |
