Many websites offer free content, the only problem is that they want you to register with them first.  Your email address starts to get pretty clogged up with all their ‘helpful’ emails.

Enter BugMeNot – this is a free site that hundreds of user-generated logins and passwords that you can use to gain access to the site without having to register.  Just go to the BugMeNot website, type in the URL of the site that you want to access and you will get a list of logins and passwords for you to use.  If one doesn’t work, just try another one.

For those Firefox users out there (and who isn’t these days ?!?) there is a BugMeNot Firefox Extension.  Simply right click in the username or email box in the site that you want to access and choose ‘Login with BugMeNot’ and you should be good to go.
