How to Log-In Progressively
If you’re like the staff at Progressive Wednesday, you find yourself wanting to read newspapers and databases like The New York Times, Chicago Tribune, and Internet Movie Database with some regularity. The hitch with these sites and others is that, in order to get the full experience, you’ve got to log in. Most of the time this requires submitting an email address or other personal information. At best, this step feels like a royal waste of your very progressive time.
The solution? Please allow us to introduce BugMeNot.com, a site which helps you and me and everyone in between to “bypass compulsory registration” on a vast array of websites, news and otherwise. If you stumble on a site you’d like to access but come upon a registration, all you do is head on over to Bug Me Not and type in the web address. What you’ll get is a list of publicly-submitted user names and passwords. Sometimes it can take a bit of trial and error to find ones that still work, but the payoff is worth it: privacy and simplicity, two things we dig as much as the Buffalo Sabres and sugar cookies, as cheese steak subs and “Everybody’s Got Something to Hide Except Me and My Monkey” by The Beatles.
I’ve used this resource for years now without regret, but you still might want to take a gander at Bug Me Not’s terms of service.
