to view “like me” posts

About those annoying websites that will not allow you to view their content unless you click “like” on every article they have. Like me, you might not want to do that, because you might find out later that they do not really have the information you need, yet you already shared it.

A guide to avoid this situation (for a few sites at least, do the following for FireFox:

  1. view the source code (Ctrl+U)  of the page
  2. find something like $(‘#hide-me’).show();
  3. Type ctrl+shift+k and paste it there, then press enter
  4. Voila!

I hope it helps 🙂
