Org changes pretty fast. Fundamentally it's still as simple but so many
usability and convenience features have been added. If you used Org
briefly earlier then perhaps you may want to check out what has been
added since at http://orgmode.org/Changes.html.

I would say you did not try hard enough. :) I went to
http://orgmode.org/manual/index.html and searched for "stars" to get the
answer to the first questions, and searched for "checkboxes" to get the
answer for the second.
Org manual is really really good; do try it.
Of course, you may also find the tutorials[1], FAQ[2] and Worg[3] also
useful.
