Cell Phone Reception Hack
New Breeze writes "Has this ever happened to you? Just when you need to make a phone call, the bars of reception are scant to none. But Graeme, who writes a blog called 'Earth: Mostly Harmless,' gives us hope. Succeeding where most would quit, he chronicled his ingenuity in a post titled 'How I got mobile phone reception where there was no signal.'"

How I read a webpage from a server that had been slashdotted into oblivion.
I can't wait for: "How I got pages served when my server was Slashdotted."
Nice solution I guess if you want a ghetto antenna next to your window, but it reminds me of my friends little brother. He was unhappy with his remote control cars range so he took a backpack and mounted a huge CB whip antenna to it and wired the antenna of the remote to the backpack. Dipole be damned, he claimed it made the car's range better. Of course he looked like a complete tard running around the street, but that wasnt unusual for him.
Dude, you totally hacked the comments with that tirade!! awesome!
I managed to hack my electricity so it reached areas it never did before. I used this hacking device called an "extension cord".
