This is great! I'll have to try to make time for this.

We need some demonstrations of exciting, engaging, and unique uses for Bitcoin. Wallets, payments, attribution, etc, are all very important but are also pretty bland. Games that simply award bits for points are a small improvement, but it's still not that exciting.

I'm looking forward to seeing use cases that are unique to Bitcoin and compelling to the layperson.
