Use Google to View MySpace or Any Restricted Site

A year ago, a reader with the handle of bigthistle posted one of our favorite hacks to hacks.oreilly.com, describing how to access restricted websites using the Google Translate feature. Acknowledging that our readers often have better ideas than we do, we recently asked Wei-Meng Lee to take a closer look at this technique, and he wrote up this awesome HOWTO based on the original submitted hack.

If you have a hack on any topic that you'd like to share, let us know by using the "Suggest a Hack" form from the sidebar of this page.

UPDATE: The MySpace Hacks blog has a roundup of related ideas in How To Use MySpace If Your School Or Work Blocks Access.
