For anybody who gets their bitcoins from tradehill, and gets dollars into tradehill from dwolla ... well it hasn't been working for a couple days now. Tradehill and Dwolla had a sort of falling out, and after that, tradehill made you go thru bitinstant if you wanted to transfer dollers, and bitinstant has been broken a couple days at least.
This would only matter if, say, you had dollars stuck in dwolla, and you wanted to buy btc from tradehill....well, can't transfer. Worse yet, it turns out Exchangebitcoin doesn't take dwolla. Best I can tell, dwolla has pulled some fast moves, and wouldn't answer tradehill when they tried to talk to some of the higherups.
One of the reasons people have wandered over to exchangebitcoin to do their trading: no, they don't take dwolla, if you have bills stuck there, but with all the stuff going on, they're still easier to deal with...and it's not that hard to just put your funds back in your bank, from dwolla, and go thru Exchangebitcoin.
EDIT: Today I checked, and TradeHill can now take deposits thru bitinstant again. In other words, if you've put dollers in dwolla or libertyreserve, u can now depost them into TradeHill again. Not near as handy as exchangeBtc was, but compared to mtgox's troubles...hell...
