Thanks, that's certainly a good start outline! Much appreciated.
So I guess there's no one out there who has been compiling a timeline, too bad, I think that'd be good for the community. People might learn from all this

It's all a mix of achievements, genuine efforts, unforeseen show-stoppers, competence, incompetence, wishful thinking, vaporware, and pump'n'dump campaigns.
I apologize if this post sounds lazy, but I was wondering if there anywhere a good condensed read of the major bullet point events of Bitcoin, or even just the major scandals and whatnot.
For example, GLBSE I'm reading in another forum was recently taken down due to some sort of issue? And SR keeps going up and down and all around. There have been a few ponzi schemes that have taken users for a ride (not sure of the names), ASICs are the hot new hype, and so on.
I've been out of bitcoin for about a year, and as my interest returns, I find I'm quite behind on many things.
Thanks in advance
