A Simple Bookmarking Tool

One of my favorite Web tools to hit the scene lately is Instapaper, a simple bookmarking tool created by a co-founder of Tumblr. Here's how Instapaper works:
  • Sign up for an account (no verification required, but you'll need to use something you'll remember). You don't have to set a password, but you'll need a user name.
  • Drag the Instapaper bookmarklet button to your toolbar.
  • Find an article you want to read, but don't have time right now? Click the "Read Later"' button, and it's instantly saved to your Instapaper account.

Once you save a page to check out later, you can choose to Edit, Delete, or Skip that selection. Simple, streamlined, and extremely useful - just the way a good Web tool should be.
