Watch TV for Free   no comments

Posted at 6:50 pm in Videos

The other day I was wandering around Best Buy when I noticed they had every single South Park season on sale. I thought about it for a long time, but ultimately decided not to buy them. That got me thinking about finding stuff online for free. It turns out South Park, Futurama, The Simpsons, Family Guy and American Dad are all online and viewable for free. Every link has ever episode of every season except the South Park one, it still has the newest episodes though.

It is not secret I am a big fan of documentaries. Check out the full list here. I’ve seen the one about the half-ton man before, or at least I tried to watch it. It was very disturbing.

Snag Films is hosting for a limited time, The End of America. It is a 75 minute documentary based on the excellent Naomi Wolf book of the same title. If you consider yourself an informed American citizen you definitely need to take the time to watch this.

This web site hosts all of the episodes of The Simpsons ever. I still probably won’t watch any of these, I just don’t care about the show anymore.

Posted at 2:08 pm in Monday Morning Distraction

The Pirate City is a new site that streams tons of movies for free. I would recommend checking out: (but have not checked if they are available) The Bank Job, Son of Rambow, Bigger Stronger Faster and The Battle in Seattle. Those are the best films I have seen lately, hopefully they are on the site.

Michael Moore’s new film is being released today, but you probably haven’t heard much about it. The film is called Slacker Uprising and it is being released for free. The film follow’s Moore’s efforts to encourage young people to vote. If it is anything like his other movies, it will be definitely worth a free screening at the very least.

Free Financial Management Tools from Mint.com   9 comments

Posted at 12:06 pm in Personal Development

Mint.com is without a doubt the coolest web site I have seen in a while. It amounts to free financial management tools. The site already has over 100,000 users and helps manage about $3 billion. The web site has received rave reviews from Forbes as well as other sources.

To use the web site all you have to do is pick a username and a password and then enter in bank account information. Mint then generates tons of stuff for you to look through. It makes pie graphs to break down spending habits, shows spending trends and can even create budgets for you to stick to.

After graduating I started saving all of my receipts to put into a giant excel spread sheet, but this is a million times easier and better. You can delete an account you make, so I urge everyone, at least give it a chance. I guarantee it improves your financial management.

*If you are worried about security, read the Forbes link.

Discuss: Reactions / thoughts from people who have tried it?
