Did some test transactions, kept the rest for a while, then when I had more bitcoins made some donations to the Faucet because it's such a great service.

Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

I to, did some test transaction just to see if it worked at all, it did. Then I tried to win some money on double trouble but lost.
When I decided to buy more BTC I donated 0.10 back to the Faucet.

I really think it's a great thing since new users just can play around with it and see that it actually works well!
