https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/do-they-accept-bitcoin/nofccoknfcageikhnhfhkpcdciapdaja?hl=en&gl=CA
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/do-they-accept-bitcoin/

This is a simple and unobtrusive Chrome and Firefox extension that lets you know when the website you are on accepts Bitcoin. It also features a "stumble" button that takes you to a random Bitcoin-accepting site, providing a convenient way for you to explore the Bitcoin world.

It currently works by scraping http://www.reddit.com/r/btcbase?limit=100, http://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Trade and http://www.bitcointrading.com/forum/spend-bitcoins/online-stores-accepting-bitcoins/ to generate a list of Bitcoin-accepting websites. The list is accessible at http://216.155.145.197/acceptbitcoin.txt. If you see the app showing an incorrect result for any site, it includes a built-in feature for submitting corrections, which I then add to or remove from the list.

The code is open source at https://github.com/vbuterin/dotheyacceptbitcoin

Donations welcome at 1V1tALUeAuCLqvJR3TiF2uXFrdFGNdTPN , and if you want to contact me privately about anything I'm reachable at vbuterin@gmail.com.

Argumentum ad lunam: the fallacy that because Bitcoin's price is rising really fast the currency must be a speculative bubble and/or Ponzi scheme.

Bitcoin addresses contain a checksum, so it is very unlikely that mistyping an address will cause you to lose money.
Advertised sites are not endorsed by the Bitcoin Forum. They may be unsafe, untrustworthy, or illegal in your jurisdiction.
