would be a good idea is making bitcoin a lot more user friendly, right now whenever I look at the stuff it feels like programmers have written the tutorial
Bitcoin client is extremely easy to use. It is more simple than text editor or media player. Only complete idiots will not understand how to use Bitcoin. I agree that Qt interface sucks and versions prior 0.5.x was way better in usability but it sill is damn simple to use. As I said before it might be a nigger and retard filter.

Good point I'm used to forums without ignore functions lol, I think it would be a great idea, but as people have already said, just build up the infrastructure for it etc. and they'll come and have a look.

What would be a good idea is making bitcoin a lot more user friendly, right now whenever I look at the stuff it feels like programmers have written the tutorial and that to me always means that you have to have a dictionary on hand to understand what the hell they're on about or take forever finding an option you didn't know existed.

We just need to build useful systems, sprinkle with a bit of marketing, and people will come to us.

Speaking of ... any update on the Coinapult SMS EWallet capability being available beyond the U.S. and Canada?

We don't need to convince people what's good for them. We just need to build useful systems, sprinkle with a bit of marketing, and people will come to us.

True, but it gets frustrating at times  Undecided

Rather than trying to convince people what's good for them in Europe, USA and other developed countries, why not try elsewhere?

Like Ethiopia for example, and here is the article that got me thinking about this http://dvice.com/archives/2012/10/ethiopian-kids.php
