Hacker News Reader

In their Questions and Answers section, they forgot "WTF is First Click Free?!"

I realize that I can Google for it, but they still should include a synopsis in the post itself.

For the lazy:

"It is possible to limit the number of free articles that a Google News reader can access via First Click Free. A user coming from the domain [.google.] must be able to see a minimum of 3 articles per day."

First click implies one... not 3 or 5... why not make it zero and be done with it?

"First three" is not a contradiction.

there should be a "S" at the end of click then.... "First clicks" ...
