I appreciate smaller posts like this, informative and to the point.

If you don't have a big rig devoted to mining only, I would recommend joining a pool. It is consistent but small amounts of money.
Can't really complain since the computer is doing all the work. Wink

I've heard about pools... How do you start looking for those? It's like groups of miners right? And if there are 5 miners you get 20%, 10 miners you get 10% etc.

The way that I found the pool that I am a part of was simply googling it. I have a Macbook Pro and so therefore I was slightly limited to what pools I could join. I found one that would work for my situation and went from there. No problems so far and have seen small profits!
And yes a bunch of miners crunch the numbers together, and the profits are divided up according to the rules of the pool you're involved in and how many people are a part of the pool.

I can't wait to start mining.
