Experts Exchange (2)	Aug 15, 2006
Whenever I search for help on web programming languages (html, css, php, etc.), one or more of the results is always located at Experts Exchange. It's a great site full of tons of information, but it has a major flaw: After you scroll past all the junk and view a page once, you can't go back and view it again unless you sign up for their service. I don't sign up for things unless I absolutely need to, so I'm sometimes not a fan of the site (plus the site charges some sort of fee). But a comment on this site shed light on the solution: Disable cookies for Experts Exchange. In Firefox, it's easy: Go to Tools -> Options -> Privacy -> Cookies, and add it to the exception list as something to block. Now every time I go to an article on Experts Exchange, I can view it as many times as I want. Problem solved. #technology

	You can usually view the answers on that site from Google cache also. The Gcache firefox extension is pretty usuful for getting around stupid stuff like that. Also bugmenot.com is a place where people post logins for websites.

	Yeah I know about both of those. But Google cache isn't very reliable because it shows an older cached copy of the page. The pages I look at are usually updated more recently than Google's cached copy. But bugmenot is an awesome thing. I can't stand signing up for things that shouldn't be forcing me to sign up in the first place, like Snapfish and the New York Times.
