I’ve been using Readability<\/a> more and more recently. I’m not exactly an early adopter in this case, but I’m glad I found it. It’s an app and service that reformats an article into a very easy to read format. It eliminates all the cruft like ads, banners and so forth that accompanies the typical web article.<\/p>\n

There are a couple of way it can be used. One is as a “Read Later” service, where an article is saved to a Readability account. The idea being that the article can be accessed through the Readability application on a smartphone or tablet or computer browser.<\/p>\n

The other way to use it is as a “Read Now” service, where the article of interest reformatted on the push of a button. These buttons are available easily enough from their website for desktop browsers like IE, Chrome or Safari. Unfortunately, they don’t have anything for mobile browsers.<\/p>\n

Fortunately, someone<\/a> figured out how to create a bookmarklet for a mobile browser to achieve the same affect.<\/p>\n

I’ve been using the Dolphin Browser on my Nook and I am happy to report that the steps explained at the link work perfectly. Basically, go to the link using Dolphin; copy the Javascript code; create a new bookmark and paste the code into the URL box; finally, save it as a “Read Now” or some other suitable name. To use it, simply tap the bookmark when an article comes up in the browser that you’d like to read.<\/p>\n

Trust me, you’ll be happy you did.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
