Unfortunately it's getting hammered enough that the content is offline.

Maybe that's why he's walking away from CouchDB?

Did he choke on the toenail this time?
So maybe this is a conspiracy. Is Zuck related to Booth?
Re:Get up to 4.5GB of extra space on Dropbox for free on Friday February 10, 2012 @02:47PM (#3577208)
For me, I already have all my gigs of photos in DropBox, so I had to come up with a way outside of uploading all those images again. I unlocked the first 2GB or so with legit iphone images, but to get the rest of the space, used this method.
Re:Get up to 4.5GB of extra space on Dropbox for free on Friday February 10, 2012 @09:59AM (#3576012)
to get the space without finding 4.5GB of images:

find any jpg image (file.jpg)

create a large file (5GB): fsutil file createnew test.rar 5368709120

combine the 2 files: copy /b file.jpg + test.rar bigfile.jpg

format thumbstick

create "DCIM" folder on thumbstick

put bigfile.jpg in thumbstick

remove thumbstick and reinsert

use the autorun dialog to select to upload to dropbox

wait

I think there's a joke somewhere in this headline, but I just can't put my finger on it.
