In January we all have witnessed the shutting down of the Megaupload.com. It was discovered that they hosted a large number of illegal content. All the other file hosting websites became more attentive to monitoring and filtering the illegal content and we help them doing this. As for the updates, we speed up the file re-check and indexation process. We also significantly improved the registration system, made a number of corrections for better usability, and added the saving of the user search preferences and new possibilities in the General Community.

700 million files in the database! We continue the promo started on the Xmas eve. You can earn a free premium account at one of the file-sharing service in mere minutes on our website. In addition we are looking for active users who could help us developing our projects by becoming testers, moderators, and translators.

We are starting a long-awaited promo for our users – you can receive the premium accounts for the file-hosting websites for free! Well, not exactly for free, but for the G-points! Invite your friends, report and comment on the files and help us make the service even better for you! We are trying to make new options and features more comfortable and intelligible but as the number of them grows it become more and more difficult, so we briefly described the new possibilities that await you on a special page. The following post is announcing the new improved password system, the adult and premium-only filters and the improved authorization system.

The database is growing even faster. It has reached the mark of 500 million of files! See the picture with the growth statistics. We added the online linkchecker and continue to improve the relevance of the database! We also released the next version of the General Downloader, implemented the advanced torrent upload to the General Torrents and continue to improve the integration of the General Community.

September and October bring many nice novelties to the General World! We are happy to inform you that several days ago the file collection of the General World has reached 400 (!!!) millions of files! All our services are growing and developing extremely fast, so we moved our projects to new, more powerful servers, which immediately resulted in better speed or work. We launched the General Community to bring some order to the communications of our users. And, last but not least, we announce new and unique service - General Torrents. It's a global torrent search engine with the possibility to upload torrents to the file hosting websites!
