Hacker News Reader

Efreedom has been the bane of my recent programming related searches, polluting my results to no end.

Do what I've taken to doing nowdays, for programming questions go straight to stackoverflow.com before Google. Or use google with site:stackoverflow.com

Or just don't use google anymore. I've switched to Duckduckgo and Blekko. So far, so good.

Or use stacksearch.org (to include serverfault et al.), or the custom search built into stackexchange (which uses Google behind the scenes as well).

stackoverflow has been my first port of call for programming queries for quite some time. If Google wasn't so filled with scraper junk that probably wouldn't be the case.

Just use this chrome extension, it redirects them all to the relevant SO page.
