Smooth, Lucas said he fixed the compiling issues with node-multi-hashing so give it another try.
I started with a clean new Ubuntu 13.10 install and followed the directions very carefully, with the same result:
npm http 404 https://registry.npmjs.org/multi-hashing/0.0.8
npm ERR! Error: version not found: 0.0.8 : multi-hashing/0.0.8

Something does not appear to be working on Ubuntu 13.10. What OS are other people using?
I have it working on 13.10.
I had problems when I installed node.js using "sudo apt-get install nodejs" So I tried building from source:
sudo apt-get install python g++ make checkinstall fakeroot
src=$(mktemp -d) && cd $src
wget -N
http://nodejs.org/dist/node-latest.tar.gztar xzvf node-latest.tar.gz && cd node-v*
./configure
sudo fakeroot checkinstall -y --install=no --pkgversion $(echo $(pwd) | sed -n -re's/.+node-v(.+)$/\1/p') make -j$(($(nproc)+1)) install
sudo dpkg -i node_*
And it worked after that. The github instructions for Debian/LMDE work for Ubuntu 13.10.
I just tried it on another 13.10 and it worked building from source.
Here is the result after running node init.js to start pool:
