- rogeriopvl 16y agoFor even better instant Mini-Web, just use Instapaper.
- Mini-WWW 16y agoAs far as I remember, the Instapaper simply saves web pages for reading later. Although it may somehow facilitate easy reading of long text content (e.g., by moving it into another reading platform like Kindle), but not too much.
- adambyrtek 16y agoWhen you click on a "Text" button in Instapaper you get a simple uncluttered textual representation of the page.
- Mini-WWW 16y agoUnlike Mini-WWW, the problem with Instapaper is the resulting format is the SAME for all pages! It's rather boring world!
- adambyrtek 16y agoWhich was inspired by the Readability experiment[1]. Not to mention that Safari has a similar feature now. Overall I like this approach better because I don't want to limit myself to a tiny subset of the web. [1] http://lab.arc90.com/experiments/readability/ http://lab.arc90.com/experiments/readability/

- Mini-WWW 16y agoOnce again, any software, or any web browser (be it Lynx, Apple's Safari, or mobile ones) needs to LOAD WEBPAGE FIRST! FULLY! And that's for some users may be a very serious obstacle!
- RyanMcGreal 16y agoAFAIK Lynx does not download images, Javascript or CSS files, leading to significant reduction in total download size.
- Mini-WWW 16y agoThere is a big difference between forcing the dumb cut for a significant part of page's representation (e.g., by Lynx), and showing the creatively minimized images, JavaScript, and CSS files in Mini-WWW's pages.
