Free access to certain subscription sites
Some publications like the Wall Street Journal charge a subscription fee for their Web version. Now, however, there is a way to get free access to a number of subscription sites by using something called the Congoo Netpass. You have to create an account but it’s free. The catch is that you only get a limited number of accesses. Still, it sounds like a reasonable way to obtain entry to paid sites that you only want to visit occasionally. A review at PC World says:
Congoo NetPass, a free utility that’s available at their website, allows you to search and read a limited number of stories from 35 popular paid-content sites, including the online homes of Billboard, Encyclopaedia Britannica, New Republic, and the WSJ. You can make between 4 and 15 visits per month, depending on the site. When you exceed the monthly allotment of visits to a particular site, you’re prompted to subscribe to the service, since you’re apparently finding it useful.
