I have some questions.
To start a service-node, it is fashionable to use an online wallet or a ledger?
Why do I need a centralized site to run?
Is not it better to make it through a wallet, for decentralization?
How to download content to the service node, what application, cost?

Great questions.  You can use the web wallet or desktop wallet for the MN/SN.  I believe they've got a team working on ledger support, and it sounds like it's coming soon. 
For now the site is centralized, but my understanding is they're working on a decentralized app to run this in the future.  Service Nodes and Masternodes have different minimum hardware requirements, through Vultr the SN VPS is $5/month, the MN VPS is $10/month.  You can find detailed setup instructions here, it's a snap, very easy to set up.

Last, join the Discord Channel (link at the bottom of the site), the team is very helpful, they can walk you through the process if you need any help.

Hello Guys
I'm really love this project, but i have some questions
1. you say that your site is hosted by 5 masternodes, but what show me whois
this ip 45.32.141.110 belongs vultr.com. This is VPS service.
Why?

Right now there is no way to prove this is running on IPFS across a cluster of masternodes, and not a VPS running somewhere.  If you ping the site a few times you should see responses from several (5?) different IPs.  A lot of us run our masternodes at Vultr or Digitalocean, that's why you're seeing the response from Vultr.  Right now we're trusting that the devs have done what they say they're doing, but at the same time they're working on some way of verifying the whole thing is running on IPFS.  It also sounds like we'll be able to see a lot more in September.  Sept 8th is when they start the alpha program for the IPFS node deployment.

We currently have a testnet of 5 masternodes running on Vultr servers.

IP Addresses:
108.61.78.254
45.32.141.110
45.32.180.187
45.32.151.95
149.28.163.65

If you ping ethofs.com from different locations or times you will get different IPs based on location and availability.
One way to test for IPFS on these Masternodes is by directly trying to access one of the IPFS hashs with the masternode ip addresses (The following hash is for the ethoFS logo). This shows that you can access the same IPFS hash from all 5 Masternode/IPFS gateways.

http://108.61.78.254/ipfs/QmbERzebJ5YxDj2eLoLSrWeKr89Qox91YQPdyna6Ygg3wP
http://45.32.141.110/ipfs/QmbERzebJ5YxDj2eLoLSrWeKr89Qox91YQPdyna6Ygg3wP
http://45.32.180.187/ipfs/QmbERzebJ5YxDj2eLoLSrWeKr89Qox91YQPdyna6Ygg3wP
http://45.32.151.95/ipfs/QmbERzebJ5YxDj2eLoLSrWeKr89Qox91YQPdyna6Ygg3wP
http://149.28.163.65/ipfs/QmbERzebJ5YxDj2eLoLSrWeKr89Qox91YQPdyna6Ygg3wP

Keep in mind that this is a very limited testnet with limited functionality but we are beginning to expand capabilities and during alpha we will be able to deploy to a larger group of masternodes to continue the testing/development.

Some exciting news...special thanks to @mk for making this happen...for those of you who use MEW (MyEtherWallet)!

It now supports ETHO! Just go to the upper right hand corner and click on the pulldown menu. Scroll down to the “ETHO ether1.org” tab and click on it.
You’re now hooked up to the ETHER-1 Network and you can access all of your Ether-1 web wallets and create new ones.

I started mining Ether1 today at weemine pool (only 80MH nothing fancy). I couldnt find any info regarding the max supply of the  coin. Is it not decided yet?

Max supply will be just under 85 million.  Here's some light reading if you'd like to check out the monetary policy.  https://ether1.org/monetarypolicy.html

Nice, that's even less than Akroma I was mining till yesterday.  I'll give it a try.

so far the miners do not actively mine token, which means that those with weak hardware for mining and like the token are now the time to mine. i think over time, the complexity as the price will start to grow.

I didn't do any research on the coin, Akroma got very difficult and I heard about the coin both from Muldoon and Estrada and decided to give it a shot. So far Its going great. Even my RX460 2gb were brought back to life due to the small DAG.

Exciting update from the dev team:  Hello Ether-1 Community! I’d like to update everyone on what the development team has been and is working on. We have deployed an updated version of the web wallet and also deployed a fully functional version to our ethoFS system (for use & feedback on usability) which constitutes the first useable application via ethoFS (see links below). We are also in the middle of building a decentralized Ether-1 store which will also be deployed to ethoFS and initially allow you to purchase Ether-1 merch with your ETHO. The store template will eventually be deployable by anyone wishing to run an ecommerce-like website on ethoFS utilizing ETHO as the currency. We will also be looking for volunteers (MN owners) to help the dev team with an alpha phase deployment of the ethoFS network in early September.
