tried to buy back my 12 btc at $10 but missed it by one or two cents... should have tried for $10.02
I welcome it if it's trivial to implement. Anyone done it yet?
Yes, mybitcoin
As soon as a trusted reliable service like that comes up, it would be very easy to just hold several BTC in there and do instant payments. If I purchase something on my credit card the other end gets confirmation within seconds no matter where they are.
Bitcoin displays the same slow speed whether you're transferring money to your next door neighbour or the other side of the planet. At least it doesn't discriminate, I guess.
That is wrong, your money would actually get charged in several days up to couple of weeks. The intermediary system (Visa) lends some money to the store you are paying at, basically taking the risk that you don't have this money. A similar system for bitcoins is trivial to implement.
...and absolute confirmation for the receiver doesn't really come for 6 months or more in some cases.
I was thinking of doing something like that with the IBB bank, of course they only loan up to 5 btc but hey its a start.

I transfer money to friends on a semi regular basis within the country. Instant transfers, no waiting.
Anyway, the rally seems to have died. Up to $12 and back down to $10. WTF. I hope it's someone's buggy bot going nuts and emptying their USD into bitcoins :-)

How can Bitcoin be used as a currency if price keeps changing dramatically every time?
There are ways for merchants to instantly change BTC to USD when a transaction happens so it's not really a problem. Plus, the whole Bitcoin phenomenon is still small, one or two speculators can easily move the market like we're seeing now. This will get more difficult as the Bitcoin market becomes bigger. 
Mt Gox is loading.... loading... loading
Bitcoin's not very useful if you need to do anything in less than a few hours.
and wiring money OS is?

how can USD be used as a currency if the price (relative to BTC) keeps changing so dramatically?

This is a bit annoying. I'm trying to get bitcoins to MtGox to sell them into the strengthening market. Been waiting 90 minutes and they're still not there.

Some bot just cleared a majort portion of asks < 13. Watch the price jump up. But there definitely will be a correction I think, looks so orchestrated.
sold 2 more btc at $12... would be fun to be able to play with $100k USD like someone obviously is right now.
less than 1000 bitcoins left for sale below 20
It will last until the guy who managed to trigger it feels like he's made enough... I congratulate him if he manages to set the turnaround point as well.
That guy is reaching at 40k USD earnings in just hours, and he set the timing. I'm in awe.
