THE INTERNET IS USEFUL!!!!!
This we know, but it bears repeating when there are so many things it is actually useful for.
Jason revealed to us a few more, being file sharing (as through bit torrents and other such legally vague websites) and the more code-savvy computer users sharing around their little tweaks and custom modifications to open-source coding programs and operating systems (Damn you linux penguin, you creepy little bastard!) and even sometimes not-so open-source operating systems, which is known as "cracking" a program.
Portable programs you can fit onto a USB drive and carry with you were also mentioned, which I think is a bloody brilliant idea, although it means I would have to invest in a world more USB sticks. Or get that terabyte external hard drive I've been looking at... Yeah I really should get that...
There is also a whole world of useful little programs and doodads that can perform uber-specific tasks free to download from various websites that I forgot to go look at but next time I need to find that one little picture of that hilarious night out last Thursday among the hundreds clogging my hard drive, I'll know exactly where to look.
