Read WSJ.com for free

25 November, 2007 on 9:12 am | English, Internet |

There are rumors since a while now about The Wall Street Journal becoming available for free.
It recently took a step in that direction, making articles free to read for users of Digg.com
I wrote a small proxy that allows me to navigate the WSJ site, and read all of the articles :

http://wsj.free.fr/
(you can also replace http://online.wsj.com/ by http://wsj.free.fr/ in the URL of any article, and you’ll be able to read it)

Update : You can now subscribe to RSS feeds that will automatically use the proxy (full list here).

(PS: I wrote this script for my personal use, and post it here just to make it easier for Digg members to read the WSJ…)
