Alternative Web Browsing

Ever thought about another way of browsing the web? Here is one of the many.

PageGetter.com, the email portal to the World Wide Web is especially useful when you want to make and save a copy of a webpage that has been blocked by your company or service provider. In a way, it is very similar to a proxy server.

Unfortunately, you may only request 15 webpages or 4.8 megabytes of downloaded webpages per month at no charge. You will need to subscribe to the service if you need more. I have not tried the service personally. Therefore, I cannot comment on the quality of service.

The basic idea is to send a URL to a designated email; PageGetter.com will then email you back the content in the format you have requested. The content that you received could be HTML, plain text, files as attachments etc.
