Quick post tonight – I’ve had a few situations recently when I’ve wanted to check out product videos or shows which use geolocation and your IP address to work out that you’re not in the US. Because of licensing agreements this can often be the case. So how do you watch the shows?

ReadWriteWeb put me on to a great free little VPN product called AnchorFree. Not only is it free, but when you connect and browse through it you are automatically routed through their network in the US. Which gives you a US IP address!

Download Anchorfree VPN software from here.
