Captcha Monster

Captcha Monster is a Firefox Add-On that completes captcha tests without you even asking it to. The add-on was originally created for those who suffer from dyslexia and/or sight problems, but now extends to those who are just plain fed up of having to prove they are not a site-hacking machine.

There are a couple of websites I go on regularly to enter contests and I don’t know what it is with their captcha code – but it always takes me 3 or more times to get it right.  I know how to read – I’ve been known to read 4 books in a day (and you can see how many books I read based on all the reviews I post on the blog) so these captchas are just extra ridiculous to figure out.  This is the site I had in mind to use Captcha Monster with!

After it is installed, just click on the captcha and the icon on the toolbar will change from “Ready” with a green check to “Solving Captcha” with an hour glass. It will then fill in the captcha and you can hit submit on the website without having to think about anything! It is super easy to use and will save me SO much time going crazy trying to figure out which letter is which when I am entering contests.  (It took longer than their average 8.5 seconds to use though, so I’m not sure I’d use it when trying to buy tickets on Ticketmaster – although it does work on their captchas too)

If for any reason the captcha monster does not work with a website, you can “suggest” it by clicking the toolbar so that the developers can make it work for that website too.

You can Try It For Free at their website (http://captchamonster.com/) for 30 days or sign up for a plan. They currently have 3 available – $2.99/month for 60 captchas/month, $4.99/month for 120 captchas/month or $9.99/month for 760 captchas/month.

Captcha Monster boasts 8.5s average solvin time, 98.94% success rate, works with virtually any CAPTCHA, complete automation and Dedicated support!

Brew Over Ice

As I’ve mentioned before – I’ve been on a HUGE iced tea kick this summer.  And BzzAgent just helped fuel my addiction by sending me an awesome Keurig Brew Over Ice kit.

If you didn’t know – your Keurig machine can brew more than just hot cups of coffee and tea!  There are specially labeled “brew over ice” k-cups that when used with a plastic tumbler (don’t use glass – the hot and then cold will crack it!) will give you an awesome cup of iced tea or iced coffee!

You can either add the ice first (this is what I do) or add the ice to the tumbler after the coffee/tea has been dispensed in to the cup.  It may take a few tries to figure out the best ratio of ice to drink – or it may take you forever to figure it out because some days I have tons of ice left and other days I feel like it is still a bit too warm.

You can also add your cream and sugar or whatever you take with your coffee / tea just like you would with the hot versions.  I found that the lemonade black tea and the sweet tea that I was sent in the sampler pack were perfect just the way they were and did not need any modifications.  Once  those ran out I picked up a box of Raspberry Sweet Tea and found that I like that a bit better with just a bit of sugar added.

My parents tried out the coffees (I’m not a big coffee drinker – hot or cold) and my mom said she tried hers black the first time and didn’t like it.  Go figure – she never drinks her coffee black so why she’d try the iced black, I don’t know.  Once she did her normal cream she enjoyed things much better.

There is some talk about “doesn’t the ice make there be less flavor?” and I have to say – NO.  I don’t know if they make these stronger because they know they will be mixed with the ice – but I definitely do not think that anything is lacking in the cups that Ive made because there is ice in there.

The only problem now is that we only have 1 tumbler and are always fighting over it!  We definitely need to get some more before summer is over so we can all enjoy brewing over ice at the same time 🙂
