Recently I've been using Dropbox to store all my files in the cloud. If you'd like to do the same, use my referral link and we both get an extra 250mb of space :)
The Point System
1. How it works
Mostly everything you do on the site will be associated with a certain amnount of points. I'll list what gives you points soon. But for now you need to understand how it works.
For example, when you read an artricle you will be awarded with 2 points (assuming your logged in!) and you will gain 2 more points for every article you read that you currently haven't read, meaning the more you read, the more points you gain.
