News Site Logins

Post by Sylvus »

Since I'm sick of clicking on links and having to register, I've decided that perhaps we should make a default login to any of the free news sites out there. If you come across a site that requires registration, I'd ask you to create a login of "veeshanvault" and a password of "password", then post the link to the site in this message. I'll edit the list accordingly. Then when people post links to sites that requre registration, you can just enter veeshanvault and password and we're good to go.

New York Times - veeshanvault/password
The Lancet - veeshanvault/password

I'm really just trying to encourage people to set up a uniform login and password that we can all use. Bug me not is worthwhile, but I'd rather not even have to look anything up at all and just always have "veeshanvault" and "password" available.

It might be a good thing perhaps to set up some sort of script maybe. Like a veeshan link that logs in for you or something.

I think the reason bugmenot has the "this password doesn't work" button is some of the news pages kill your password if it's used too often..

Anyone have a login for The Economist. I want to read that story where they called BS on the Business Software Alliance's numbers on software piracy.

Story was aptly called "BSA or just BS?"
