Hack into your favorite magazines

The Hack has been taken from another website, which I could not remember now. 
All credit go to them. 

Hey this trick can serve you with the latest issue of popular magazines like PC Magazine, MIT Technology Review, Popular Mechanics, MacWorld, Lonely Planet, Reader's Digest, etc without paying any subscription charges.Even you will also get to read Penthouse and Playboy. The trick is by making use of the Safari browser by apple Inc.

First download the browser and install it.
After installing, go to Edit -> Preferences -> Advanced and check the option that says "Show Develop menu in menu bar."
Open the "Develop" option and choose Mobile Safari 1.1.3 - iPhone as the User Agent.

Now open zinio.com/iphone from Safari browser and start reading your favorite magazines for free.
another web site offering such services with some not-bad magazines :
http://iphone.texterity.com/magazines/


Firefox users can install the User Agent Switcher add-on and configure it with the following User Agent:

Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; U; CPU like Mac OS X; en) AppleWebKit/420.1 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/3.0 Mobile/4A102 Safari/419 (United States) 

just add the line into the User Agent field in the options of the add-on and any name in the description. Then switch to that User Agent and visit the Zinio website that was created for iPhone users.
