Articles summarizing interesting historical happenings would be cool. I like the one recently about bobsurplus...

If you ant to post them on your offsite blog that is cool but you may as well post them here also, which is fine, unless you are just trying to drive traffic over there..

I personally thing sagas in video format backed by screenshots would be the best, but would be more effort and complex..

Their used to be talk about writing a novel of the history of Cryptsy from its beginning to end and that is something I would really like to see..

Their is another topic by xtraelv running right now about historic btct scandals that would be a great source of potential topics.

It would be a cool topic, I agree.
I think I've seen a couple of threads that talked about Buterin, Satoshi, Laszlo and some of the stories related to them.

Hey all, want to gage interest in a potential series of articles I may publish to nulltx.com.

Just now, my mind wandered to the infamous Bitcointalk account, Bipolar Bob. It dawned on me that many likely have no idea who this is. I picture this project as a series of articles that conveys the timeline or major happenings of prominent personas in the space from way back when. Others may include accounts like laszlo and TradeFortress. Would you guys be interested in this type of content?

I think it is a great idea. I've tried to get Tradefortress to talk to me already but have been unsuccessful so far. I'd be quite happy to help you gather information as well. (Just have a look at my signature if you want to see some of my research)

As a relative newcomer to Bitcoin, I'd be interested in some of the history,and the personalities that Bitcoin created.

Some of these members have pretty amazing sagas behind them, but really you should post your articles here. I myself am a bitcoin news writer and I would prefer people visit our website, but I usually post at least a bit of the story here when I do advertise my articles.

I hate it when people try to post an article in a discussion thread, and I'm having to put members who create those dreadful formatted pseudo-pages with oversized coloured sub-headings. I think the best method of presentation is a web page, and a posted link with a brief description or extract. There is nothing worse for a thread than a load of spambies quoting a full length formatted article repeatedly.

I can understand concerns about links to external websites, and I've noticed that the mods are active in removing or blocking suspicious links. I've thought for some time that it would be worth creating a directory of members sites, and anything untoward could be reported to the community. Members like Vod have created some really useful sites, and I don't believe those sites will ever be used to scam or cheat Bitcoin Talk members.

Sure, I like this kind of stuff. One time BiPolarBob gave .01 BTC for free to a hundred people, and I was one of them.

I would rather not have to click on outside links, I know its a weird pet peeve but the fact is, all of this information is here already.

Laszlo is of course the 10k BTC Pizza Guy, who considered upping the price after he got no takers in the first 2 days for his offer, and TradeFortress has the ugliest reputation I've ever seen!
