Read Popular Magazines for Free - No Subscribe Needed

Internet is the source of information, but sometimes we need extra cash for that information (although most of them you can get for free). Currently I’m enjoying reading popular magazines, such as Men’s Health, PC Magazines, MIT Technology Review, Popular Mechanics, MacWorld, Lonely Planet, Reader’s Digest, including Playboy and Penthouse too, right in front of my PC for free.

How is the trick? If you are Windows users, you can go to this link. Labnol already gives you superb trick to do this. However, since I’m linux (Ubuntu Hardy Heron) user, I can’t install safari on my PC. Don’t worry, Mozilla Firefox will take care all of this problem.

Step 1: What you need to do is installing “User Agent Switcher” addons for Firefox, you can download here.

Step 2: After you installed the addons, now go to Tools > User Agent Switcher > Options > Options

Step 3: Click on “User Agent” on the left window then click Add. Now fill the Description and User Agent with “Mobile Safari 1.1.3″ (without quote). Left the rest with blank.

Step 4: Then restart your firefox and go to Tools > User Agent Switcher > Mobile Safari 1.1.3

Step 5: You’re all done. Open Zinio.com/iphone with Mozilla Firefox and start reading your favorite magazines for free.

PS: Don’t forget to turn back your User Agent to default after you finish reading the magazines.
