Hey everyone, I'm new to the forum as a user, been lurking for a few weeks now. I really like the idea behind Bitcoin and see a trend towards more mainstream types of use. Having run several successful brick and mortar businesses, I'd love to find out what kind of services the die-hard users would like to see, either completely new services, or areas that could use some competition and innovation. Also what kind of services do you think would help to promote Bitcoin to new users. It's all well and find to self promote within the existing community, but more needs to be done to increase the reach. (Not to put down what the existing supporters and developers are already doing - there's been an incredible amount of superb work done - just that there is so much more that can be done). I'm sure there are discussions about this here as well, but this gives me an opportunity to break into the newbie ranks ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

Welcome
I believe most usefull would be buing/selling Bitcoins for USD easily and securely. Like adding it to current ATMs by modifying software only

Plain and simple. - I want a local gas station (petrol station for you Europeans) where I can pay at the pump for my fuel with bitcoins.
- I want a local restaurant where I can pay for my food with bitcoins.
- I want a local bar (pub, tavern, whatever you want to call it) where I can settle the tab at the end of the night with bitcoins.
- I want my local comic book shop to accept bitcoins for trades and subs.
- I want a local barber that will accept bitcoins as payment for a haircut.
- I want a local mexican restaurant to accept bitcoins as payment for a burrito.
- I want my employer to pay at least a portion of my salary in bitcoin.
