Cooling a MacBook like this seems inconvenient, but it certainly works.
However the second picture in the article - where someone is using copper coins on an internal computer component - is utterly stupid and dangerous. Copper is one of the best conductors. If one of those coins falls onto the mainboard it could easily short out something. In the best case you break your mainboard, in the worst you start a fire.
I was thinking about how convenient pennies would be an imagining a "Cool Your Macbook for Thirty-Nine Cents". Then I remembered US pennies ain't copper.
