The writing services of our very own Atlas, and a Bitcoin Badge, which in hindsight, probably not the wisest purchase...but still cool!

Bitcoin Badge? Where? I'm curious!

Windows 7 keys @ 1 btc each (when they were at $30). Was pretty nice.

That's a heck of a deal!

This. I made a send BTC button in my browser extension. Few people seem to need it.

Its not that few people need it. I, for example, would not trust the browser with access to my bitcoins. I think its too risky.

That's a great feedback, thanks. I will think on that.
Do you trust your browser to access your bank account or ebay account, enter credit card numbers, or send through paypal?

I use paypal and have used moneybookers. The difference is that those services are part of a company, are centralized and would answer if there is a hack. I think I could recover what I could loose (maybe Im wrong). But this is not an option with Bitcoin (it has other advantages but not this one) so you have to be extracareful.

Would you trust a Buy Now button? (courtesy of mybitcoin.com)

I have purchased USD$ with bitcoin. I cannot find anything else worthwhile to spend bitcoins on.

Such an extension might actually be useful. But seriously: How can you expect anybody to trust a browser extension that is developed by someone who [...]

I tried several ways of marketing. No need to call me names.
About trust, the whole app is opensource.

I bought more bitcoins with my coins.

Also I think I've sold a little soul for BTCs.

Hmmmm....I see into my future

I walk into the local corner store..walk down the first aisle and think "oooo piece of candy"...
I take the tasty tidbit up to the counter (maybe grab a RedBull on the way)...
I whip out my wallet and pull out my USB/BitCard??? loaded with a few of my BTCs...
I plug/swipe to pay and then leave. Wink

That would be awesome.

No one likes spammers. No one likes people using stuff that was stolen. And no sane person will trust someone like that:

received and number of transactions, with one click
* adds a Select button for easier copy-paste
* adds a Send BTC button (requires bitcoin_httpd)

Already over 120 installs.

I hope actually someone in the US will sue you for sending them unsolicited mail to a mail address that was stolen via the Mt.Gox hack (and in general, I'm not a fan of "everyone sues everyone") ... but spammers just deserve any trouble the legal system can give them.

I just bought two of the BTC-in-resin casts. I bought my roommate some artists' crayons last month. I've made a few BTC by providing coding support and fixing a bizarre network problem. And my roommate, I've gotten somewhat interested in this -- he's considering taking bitcoins for commissioned artwork.
