Instapaper » F'N click me

jakoblodwick:

marco, one of the Tumblr guys, created a new project. It’s worth signing up just to see the perfectly elegant handling of user accounts. “If you didn’t set a password, you don’t have one.” Oh, Marco!

I’m ready to direct some traffic to my little side project, Instapaper. I’ve been using it for months and couldn’t live without it now.

Here’s the basic premise:

  • You come across substantial news or blog articles that you want to read, but don’t have time at the moment.

  • You need something to read while sitting on a bus, waiting in a line, or bored in front of a computer.

Instapaper solves both of those problems. Try it out and let me know what you think.

Oooh… I wish I had enough programming prowess to create a simple but useful app.  Definitely going to try this out!
