Bypass Compulsory Web Registration
Often you’ll come across site that require you to sign-up before you can access their content. These sign-ups are free, yet compulsory. I have often used Mailinator for this. But it still requires me to fill out a registration form and then visit the Mailinator site to check email and in some cases, follow links to complete the registration process.
Enter BugMeNot.Com. This site provides ready-made login usernames/passwords for sites that require compulsory web registrations. Just type in the URL and you get a perfectly valid username/password that you can use to access the content of the website. You can even add ones that you made yourself to the list.
Nice.
