From the Atlantic on 8-8-2011, 7:30am ...
Seriously? That article is a month old and has already been reported here. It's ridiculous inflammatory title has also spent more of it's fair share in the google limelight and provided a source of junk material for lazy journalists to write copycat articles.

Another idiot talks about Bitcoin as if it's history. Opinions that something won't succeed are one thing - but Gurav Ghos is just making stuff up. (Perhaps yet another journalist who copies from The Atlantic )

mostly good, but i had to pick out this particular part: each bitcoin itself contains a record of who owned it i assume newbies may be confused by this statement given the anonymity/privacy potential of the system.

(Perhaps yet another journalist who copies from The Atlantic ) It looks like Gaurav S Ghos accepts critical feedback, if anyone cares to help set the 1.3 billion Indians in the know.

Dr Lawrence H.White mentions Bitcoins at 21Minutes in. So removing legal tender status from US treasury coins and Federal reserve notes more generally would simply broaden the freedom to denominate debt contracts in whatever people want, not just dollars, not just gold, but they might want silver, they might want to say the debt is only discharged by cheques or wire transfers of dollars, or it could be silver coins, or it could be units of foreign currency, claims denominated in consumer index bundles, or wholesale commodity bundles, (ah) or it could be Bitcoins.

I was a little surprised that Australia's Computer Reseller News (which produces a magazine of the same name) would report on some internet forum being hacked. I guess they consider Bitcoin and related incidents to be noteworthy to their readers.

Yet another Silk Road story. The para quoted below is all there was on bitcoin. Synthetic drug sales booming on Web LARRY OAKES 2011-09-11 http://www.startribune.com/local/129596073.html?page=1&c=y"Instead of credit cards -- which are routinely accepted at other sites -- Silk Road accepts only "Bitcoins," an untraceable digital currency available through online currency exchange services. Recently, the exchange rate was around $7 per Bitcoin. "
