Originaly I read about them in an online news article, probably MSNBC, and that was close to two years ago. Late this spring, I was listening to Howard Stern, and one of the show producers was talking about how he had taken up vaping and how satisfying it was when compared to his prior smoking habit. Piqued my interest enough to start research, and I was lucky enough to find a supplier within 20 miles of my home. Pricing was competitive, so I got my 510 gear and have been vaping Johnson Creek juices ever since.
I took my time, and tapered tobacco use gradually to none over a period of a month or so.
I haven't smoked a Camel in about 4 months now, and that is after a 35 year pack-a-day or better habit.
Never thought it would happen.
I started out with 24mg juice, and have tapered that down gradually, I'm about to start my first bottle of 11mg juice this week.
Oh, I average 2 to 2-1/4 ml per day, or a 30ml bottle every two weeks. and I finally got to the point where atomizers are lasting 4-5 weeks or 2-3 bottles of juice before I replace them.
The whole experience changed for me when I got my nicostick boxmod together and gave up on standard e-cig batteries.
I now spend about 40% of my previous smoking budget in my habit, and couldn't be happier.

Found out from my suitemate last year. (completely straight edge person, hasn't even tasted alcohol yet) He told me that he saw some kid in his Japanese class with one and explained what they did. Thankfully, the price is half of what they used to be and now there's much more information about them.

I found an affiliate link for Green Smoke buried in the code of a wordpress template I'd downloaded to modify !?!
And then some firefox addon author asked for a click through to them in lieu of a donation.
I was impressed enough that they'd weaseled their way in to my demographic that I checked it out. heh.

Didn't buy one from them though, I found this forum and after a crap ton of research got a 510 instead.

I saw an ad for e-cigarettes, I think on the coasttocoast homepage back in August.
I'm not sure what made me click the link as I had never heard of e-cigs before, I think it just looked interesting.
Also I remember I was starting to feel very tired from smoking too much, I think I knew it was time to cut down or quit and this solution just presented itself at the right time. I found an NJoy seller in the UK the same night.

Same here - she gives them away from time-to-time. As I recall she started talking about them very early in 2009. She related her own experiences with the e-cigs and I was SOLD

I saw a Blu ad on somethingawful.com. Clicked on the link just to see what it was about. Watched their video. Searched for online reviews, thinking it was the only electronic cigarette out there (I live a sheltered life, I guess), stumbled onto a link for ECF, joined, posted, read recommendation for Joye 510 from cignot.com, ordered one, read more threads while waiting for delivery, got 510, loved it from the start.

I can't believe I never heard of these before but man, if it wasn't for ECF I would have probably ordered a Blu and quit vaping the first day I had one.
ECF and its members: I owe you all, big time. Best move I've made in years.

My brother mentioned them in a phone call, I laughed (thought he was joking), I googled, found a video on youtube, the lady with her arm in a sling and ordered a 901 kit off E-bay and had quit tobacco for good within a week.

I was walking threw the mall and saw Smoke Everywhere. Loved their adaption of the 801 but then found this place and got a 901 which I broke..ordered another 901 (love the vaper off it) and my changer got destroyed when I took a flight to AZ. Came home ordered the Prodigy and have been slowly beating my analog addiction.
