Cloud Storage War in China
As a native Chinese, let me tell you what happend in the area of cloud storage in China and the details.This is called "Cloud Storage War in China"
First of all, you should know the top cloud storage companies in China: Baidu, Tencent, Sina, Kingsoft, Qihoo 360, Huawei,115
Before, China’s free storage services are mainly focused on storage capacity under 15GB. But in Aug 13, 2013, Kingsoft Cloud officially announced that the company has received $ 20 million investment.Supported by the financing, Kingsoft Kuaipan, a service under Kingsoft Cloud, offers a 100G free storage service to personal users.
Then Qihoo 360 said that they offer users 360 GB of permanent free space.
Then Baidu said: Pay 1 RMB, and you'll get 1TB permanent space.(6.1 RMB=1 USD)
Then Qihoo 360 said: we'll offer users extra 666 GB of free space (360GB+666GB=1026GB, more than 1TB)
Then Baidu said: we offer users 1TB free, and if pay 1 RMB, you'll get extra 1TB.
Then Tencent said: we offer users 10TB of free and permanent space.
Then Qihoo 360 said: we offer users unlimited space, free and permanent.
Then Baidu change its service to: we directly offer users 2TB for free, no need money, and claimed that it will give back that 1 RMB to users that payed before.
And Sina said: we offer users 100GB of free space, and will offer more latar. It also said: if you share one file to public, you will get the same size of free permanent space.(so called: unlimited)
And Huawe said: if you share one file to public, then you can delete this file, while the file is not actually deleted on server, you can also download it.( so called:unlimited)

How to Create a Blog Post in Office 2013
When you launch Word, you should see a Blog post template somewhere near the top of the screen. This is the template that is going to allow us to post the content we create to our blog. So go ahead and double click on it.
The first time you use the template, you are going to need to set up a blog account so that Word knows where and how to post your content. This is very important because different blogs platforms require the information to be formatted differently.
Word supports a surprising number of platforms out of the box. How-To Geek is run on WordPress, so we will choose that, but feel free to pick the platform that your blog is running on, then click next.
You will most likely have to enter some kind of URL so that Word knows where to post your content, but we also want it to remember our username and password so we opted to check the “Remember me” checkbox.
You can then simply write up a blog post using all the familiar editing options you are used to when working in Microsoft Word.
At How-To Geek, we initially publish everything as a draft so that it can be edited and proof read. To send the current post to draft, click on the publish drop down and select Publish as Draft. Alternatively, you can just click on Publish if you want the post to go live immediately.
