Instapaper

My “can’t do without” tool this summer.  How many bookmarks do you have for sites or resources to check later?  Chances are you haven’t even taken time to organize those bookmarks into specific folders, complicating identifying the bookmarks later.  With a quick install of the Instapaper tool, a “Read Later” button appears in the toolbar, permitting users to “Read Later” articles, web pages, blogs, etc. and then deciding whether to bookmark the resource permanently in an appropriate folder.

When time permits to review your Instapaper collection, users have the opportunity to archive, delete, print, share, send to Kindles, and many more options.  

Instapaper could be a tremendous resource for students working on research papers or class projects.  Instead of printing every article a student finds on a topic, he/she could “Read Later” the articles when he/she actually has time to read and sort through content, eliminating a need to print everything.
