Let me throw this out there, because I wasn't aware of it myself. If you have a Samsung phone (maybe tablet too), the "Get Started" bonus changes from 250MB to 48GB! I discovered this when I activated Dropbox on my phone and suddenly it's telling me I get a bonus. It most likely only applies to Samsung devices that come with Dropbox pre-installed. Still got to do all these steps to get it though:
- Take the Dropbox tour
- Install Dropbox on your computer
- Put files in your Dropbox folder
- Install Dropbox on other computers you use
- Share a folder with friends or colleagues
- Invite some friends to join Dropbox
- Install Dropbox on your mobile device
This makes doing all the steps well worth it.
Edit: I misread, you don't have to do every single one, I only did the ones italicized above and got the 48GB added.
