WTF "Other" has more than 51% hashing power according to Bitcoin Watch.  Does it mean that we are !@#$#?

Bitcoin mining is now a specialized and very risky industry, just like gold mining. Amateur miners are unlikely to make much money, and may even lose money. Bitcoin is much more than just mining, though!

Back before there were pools 100% of the hashing power was "Other".  I think you're reading too much into this.

Oh, this is news? Big pools suck. People who mine in them don't care about keeping the network secure.

I like MtRed.  It has fast refresh time (5 minutes vs. 1 hour for Deepbit) and really low fees.  I still like Deepbit's interface the best though.
