I used to read these boards religiously. I recently got a new job that doesn't allow me as much time to keep up with the world of Bitcoin, but I still want to know what's going on. Is there a place I can go, perhaps once a week, to read a summary of what has gone on in these forums and what is new in the world of Bitcoin?

Do not waste your time debating whether Bitcoin can work. It does work.
"Early adopters will profit" is not a sufficient condition to classify something as a pyramid or Ponzi scheme. If it was, Apple and Microsoft stock are Ponzi schemes.
There is no such thing as "market manipulation." There is only buying and selling.

Good question. I would also like a website that filters all important announcements. Something like:
- Bit-pay got a new thing going with mobile devices and physical payments
- Bitcoinica has grown a lot and people are now shorting bitcoins with 5x leverage
- The price rose once again to the $6 mark
- A chain-restaurant in the US was supposed to begin accepting bitcoins this weeked, but nothing happened
reddit is not bad, but there are many questions there. If you want a weekly round up, you will have to go through lots of stuff.

This looks exactly like what I'd like to see (with links). What are new places to spend Bitcoin, what turned out to be a scam, etc. |

http://btclog.com isn't a bad place to check out. We can start doing the week in review if you like, great idea! Anyone want to help with that? I can set you up as an official contributor and send Bitcoin your way. As it stands we award 1BTC per day to the member with the best original post. |

That means I won't be going to that site. |
