BitCoin Revisited

Since I did such a ... lets just call it unorganized ... job of explaining Bitcoin a few weeks ago, I prepared a better presentation here:

In brief: What Bitcoin is, what they actually are, how it works, a bit about hashing (SHA-256), how one acquires bitcoin, and what is the point of it all.  <grin>  OBTW, the computer club will accept bitcoin for your annual dues.  (Which may be the only way we'll get some!)
As of 3 May 9:41 am, the bitcoin exchange rate is 1 bitcoin= $88.83 per http://preev.com.  Time to buy!  The biggest bitcoin exchange is Mt. Gox, https://mtgox.com/.  Click on the top line of the Mt Gox page to see some interesting Bitcoin statistics.
