Unlike other data storage services, Vault will take into account only actually used resources, i.e. the user will pay for the actually used space and traffic, without the necessity to make monthly payments. The prices has not been set yet, however at least 1GB space&traffic per month will be free. Moreover, we plan discounts or increases of free limits for non-profitable projects related to education, healthcare, environmental and animal protection and some other social sphere. Bitcoin will be used as a payment means for webRunes products and services. More info can be found at official website http://bitcoin.org/. In 2013 Vault will support I2P. All information on I2P can be found at official website http://www.i2p2.de/

Right?

Just now on the french subforum, there's a guy asking how to "do a wire to bitcoins". He doesn't seems to understand how bitcoins works so I explain a bit and asks him what is it for. His answer: "I wanna buy some things on a site and they only accept bitcoins so".
I don't know what site it is though. But I made my day.

I dunno.   The "trend" charts for BTC-related search terms at SEMrush are pretty interesting thoguh.

Across the board, all of the main keywords for Bitcoin topics have seen massive and nearly vertical jumps lately.  The only problem is, it's still such a tiny market in terms of search volume and weight, as well as variety of keyphrases, that these numbers could easily be manipulated.
