http://www.financegirl.co.uk/8-ways-to-spend-bitcoins/

A post I wrote about different places that were accepting Bitcoins, and the various country policies governing them at the time. A fun read, but likely quite uninformative for any veterans of Bitcoins. The article is more aimed at newer users, like me, who are just getting their feet wet and seeing how things work.

Thanks for the heads up! I'm working on a more in depth piece, but want to wait until the dust settles from the current jitters.

I'll include it, though. Appreciate the tip Smiley

Why should be? Smiley

anyway seems like porn sites did not jump at all @ "accept Bitcoin"

and I guess this is good. Even very good.

Gyft lets you pay for gift cards with Bitcoin, which you can either use yourself or hand off to friends, family, etc.  I've used it so far for Amazon and Fandango, but there are a bunch of other options.

I thought that porn sites would benefit from the added anonymity of their customers.
