Hello forum! And world!

I'm embarrassingly new to all things CryptoCurrency and have spent the last few days reading my way through interesting topics on the forum. Since I figured it might be helpful to be able to reply to specific posts if there's ever something I want to say, registering now seemed like a good idea.

At the moment, my approach to learning more is mostly to do the virtual equivalent of poking things with sticks, to see what happens (i.e. running cudaMiner and laughing at my hash/s, and following the BTC and LTC exchange rates). Hopefully I'll be able to understand more of the arcane workings of Bitcoins before civilization ceases to exist.
