Vike...

Welcome man - newbie as well (at least on here). I think your site idea is an awesome one. There is such a ridiculous amount of information about BTC / LTC / etc. that it's almost taxing to parse through everything. If you could effectively marry the two in a glorious orgy of Crypto Currency romance explosion...veeeerrrryyyyy NAAAIIICCCEEEE (sorry, went Borat on ya) - Do it up!

Any info you have about how you got started mining would also be appreciated.

Cheers bud.

The problem I'm having is I don't want to upset other web-admins by aggregating info from their sites and this one too!
For now when I do take something from a site I restructure the code to make it mine first, then I give credit on a citation page so people can trace info to its source.
I'm still very novice at coding but I am committed to making this site work.

I was introduced to bitcoin mining a while back but I didn't dig deep enough to understand how to mine and what to do with the coins. Then I cam back to it about a week ago. It took and incredible amount of sorting through spam sites, videos, and forums. But I finally got GUIminer working well with my HD5870. With the previous overclock settings I had I was almost pushing in to 400 Mhash/s. But with temps at 89-98 I figured turning it down to save some degrees was smart. Running at 750 mem clock I get 340-350 with no programs running in the window. With a load of 99% and temps hovering at 85c I'm feeling safer mining dedicated 24/7.
