This old edition of Lifehacker is so tasty, just listing the ingredients makes me want to eat it:

~ How to get free subscriptions to online newspapers

~ How to get free wireless access

~ Getting onto Gmail when it’s down

~ Accessing busy sites

~ Bypassing country-based internet blocks, and

~ Downloading YouTube.

Brett Camper is the guy who also made the great iPhone app Trees Near You. For its part, 8-Bit has an interesting use also of kickstarter for it’s funding. Seems the future is becoming one big game. Check it out (and other cities) here.

Yimmys Yao

Definitely NSFW (unless you’re in the porn, drugs and self harm business), Yimmys Yao is a tumbler billed as ‘Visual Crack for the Ocular Fiend’. Definitely clickable.
