I know a lot more about bitcoin than the average member. I studied computer networking, security, and programming. I've done > 8 hours of reading on bitcoin, exchanges, etc. and have traded over $200 of bitcoin via MoneyGram (bitinstant) and VirWox in Second Life. I am familiar with several clients and online wallet services (such as Electrum and Blockchain, the two I use). I am also familiar with setting up an account on Mt. Gox and Dwolla.
