Since Southwest allows you to login and print out your boarding passes 24 hours in advance, the chances of getting an “A” boarding pass (that is, be in the first group to board the plane) are easier for the tech savvy. This also means that services such as this one, which charges $5 for each successful “A” boarding pass it secures for you, also appear. It’s dangerous to use untested services (and unaffiliated services) like this one because with the information they request, they can change your itinerary (but not the traveller’s name) without your consent.

All points you current have last twelve months longer and all new ones will be valid for twenty four months. Here is what the Rapid Rewards E-Mail Update stated:

If you are familiar with Southwest’s frequent flyer program, you’ll immediately recognize the beauty of this offer. If you aren’t familiar, a quick juant over here and you’ll quickly and easily learn that Southwest has one of the easiest and hassle-less programs out there. If you sign up for Ding! and keep it installed and active for thirty days, you will receive 2 free credits (equal to about $60 according to my calculations of a value per credit).
