Same issue here :D There is a bunch of places where you can use your bitcoins listed over at the Bitcoin Wiki : <a href="https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Trade">https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Trade</a>. The channel over at <a href="http://bitcoin-otc.com/">http://bitcoin-otc.com/</a> also allows people exchanging Bitcoins to chat and exchange goods and services.<br>
<br>Overall at that point, it doesn't just feel like the question is so much "What can I do with bitcoins ?" so much as "What do I want to do with bitcoins ?". There is a lot left to invent there !<br>
