Ever experienced this? You
ask Google to search
something and it will
return a lot of relevant
results, but if you try to
open the ones with the
most promising content,
you are confronted with a
registration page instead,
and the stuff you were
looking for will not be
revealed to you unless
you agree to a credit card
transaction first. This
means that Google is able
to see what a normal
netizen cannot see.

The reason behind this is
that Google uses a Bot
called GoogleBot and
most of websites which
force users to register or
even pay in order to
search and use their
content, leave a backdoor
open for the GoogleBot
because a prominent
presence in Google
searches is known to
generate sales leads, site
hits and exposure.
Examples of such sites are
Expert-Exchange,
Windows Magazine, .Net
Magazine, Nature, and
many other sites around
the globe.
What if you could disguise
as GoogleBot then you
can also see what
GoogleBot can.
