Hi all!

This is my first post here and I wanted to share some ideas I had for possible new bitcoin services. I'm a man in my thirties and I learned about bitcoin in november 2012 from a story about Wordpress accepting bitcoin. After that I was hooked on the invention of bitcoin and couldn't stop reading about it and watching bitcoin related videos. I am very interested in IT, economy and mathematics, and bitcoin pretty much covers all of these fields so naturally I'd be interested in bitcoin as well.

Lets get right to the ideas I had for possible bitcoin services:

1. How about a site that lets you check what position you have on the bitcoin richest list. Example if you had 11,111,111.00 bitcoins in an address, when you paste your address in the form at the site, it will return the position among the bitcoin richest (in this example it would be position 1). And if you had 1.9 bitcoin you would prolly end up on position 387,934 or something. Anyway, I would def donate bitcoins to such a service.

2. How about a service that would send you a mail and/or sms if the price per bitcoin goes over or under a threshold you've set. Could be subscription based perhaps. 0.5btc for a year subscription perhaps.
[edit] morthandeus says this service exists allready;
Bitcoin Paranoid is a free Android app that tracks prices and has configurable alarms for fluctuations.
[end edit]

If these kinds of services allready exist please let me know.
