Penthouse writer Robin Postell highlights Bitcoin and its star players in a narrative with a humorous twist. Very creative writing!

In a cathartic gush I unload on the deputy, telling him that Im under deadline and my best friend just had a baby and my boyfriend was tired of kitty-sitting because hed been unable to sleep for the past two nights because of it playing with his feet and Im writing a piece about bitcoins for Penthouse, due in the morning.
Bitcoins? he says. Lemme me pull over.
For the first time in my Penthouse history, the topic Im writing about gets more attention than the magazine Im writing for. Its a sign.

Great to hear SFU presenting bitcoin to
future technical architects and Canadian
business people. Is the presentation
available on-line?

This one was not recorded. But the next one (sometime near the end of Oct) should be recorded.

Hello Fellow Canadian bitcoin enthusiasts
Howdy
Re: Bitcoin Begins: The Dawn of Digital Currencies (09/26/2013)
Good work! What was the agenda like?
3 guest speakers. Each spoke 15 minutes on where Bitcoin is today, how it functions, and why we need it. With rounds of Q&A and quizzes where people can win shirts.
Afterwards, we had a random draw. One lucky person won $50CAD worth of BTC.
People then filled out surveys about their experience, then everyone went off to network and eat!
All that in the span of 2 hours.
Most people in the audience have only heard about Bitcoin in passing. They knew very little about it.
Yes, all 3 guest speakers could be considered entrepreneurs (one of them co-founded Free Geek). About 1/3 of the audience were entrepreneurs (we had the founder of CarSurfing in attendance).
I hope there will be more events like this throughout different cities in the world. It's social events like these that makes Bitcoin really pop.

don't mean to be a downer but the beginning of Bitcoin hardly began with SFU.
who is Simon Fraser Univ anyways?

It's just a catchy slogan. Don't read into it too much

Hi guys!
Last Thursday, an inaugural event of the Simon Fraser University Bitcoin Club was held in Vancouver, British Columbia. We had about 40 or 50 people come out to hear a panel of speakers (including the co-founder of Free Geek Vancouver) an introductory seminar on Bitcoin. The Q&A and networking session was especially engaging! It was a great success!
