When I do my morning web research, I try to find articles that look like they will be worth reading later. In doing this, I look at headlines, and avoid reading the stories until I have processed all the titles.
My two favorite ways of saving articles for later reading are (1) using the Star feature in Google Reader and (2) using InstaPaper. When I see an article I want to read later on my iPhone/Touch, I click the InstaPaper “Read Later” bookmark in my browser’s toolbar (I have it installed on Safari, Chrome, and Firefox), and it is sent to my InstaPaper account, which stores the article in a nice format for my later reading. The image on the right shows the current to-read items within the InstaPaper app on my Touch.
InstaPaper also stores this information at http://www.instapaper.com/u, so I can view and manage it there.
I like reading the articles on the iPhone/Touch screen. It has a cleaner appearance than viewing the articles on the web, and, with the paid version (about $10), you can set it up so that it removes images and unnecessary formatting.
This is one of the nicest little apps I’ve come across in a while. I read a lot, and being able to read blog articles on my iPhone/Touch, in an easy-to-read format and font size, is highly useful to me.
