Good point about lack of UX. There's even no bitcoin matches on Cnet, which means it's very early days. I see bitcoin uptake play out much the same way as Twitter did.

It received a publicity spike due to Jason Calacanis.

Tectonic shifts don't come around like this often. It's a bit like early Linux. The first big corporate backer of bitcoin will do well. Who's going to be the Red Hat of bitcoin? Lonely Planet? Expedia, Creative, Apple, Sony, Ticketmaster?
