Full Ack.
Everytime you buy something, ask the shop if they accept bitcoins.

After some few requests the store has to integrate BTC!




Additional:
You are in school or university? Draw something about bitcoin on the board. They do not have to know bitcoins at all, it's just about spreading the word "I have heard about it".
Or do a presentation.

My most favourite way is to ask online stores to accept Bitcoins. We need much more stores to accept Bitcoins, and everytime when a store chooses to do so, a lot of customers will be seeing this and it will become more mainstream. Apart from that, the competitors of the store that accepts Bitcoins, will also have an incentive to do the same...

One other suggestion to promote Bitcoin:

- how about a Bitcoin bumper sticker ?     Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

I like the video game nickname idea, as I'm an avid gamer.  I'll probably do that.

I have been mercilessly talking about crypto-currency with friends and family.  There has been lots of laughing and accusations of "fake internet money."  That and the spouse has been very not thrilled with the amount of time I've been spending on my mining rigs.  I shall persist!

- get local media resources interested in bitcoin

Let's come up with some ideas for people who want to actively promote the rise of Bitcoin:

- ask online stores where you have ordered before to accept Bitcoins
- ask brick and mortar stores to accept Bitcoins, possibly assist / help / point them in the right direction
- educate friends and family members about using Bitcoin
- facilitate in small and local cash for Bitcoins and Bitcoins for cash transactions (there are websites that bring buyers and sellers together)
- become an active member of Bitcoin forums
- become an active participant of Bitcoin chatrooms
- create your own Bitcoin related blog / website
- ask your employer about implementing Bitcoin (if applicable)
