I don't think so, other than me posting links on HN threads for articles that need it (such as this NYT article). But thanks! It's mostly based on readability, not 100% though. I ported Readbility (JavaScript) to C#.

Is it okay if I link to it from historious for formatting webpages?

  Yup! That's really the intended use, for others to provide links to articles from within their apps. That's what I did for http://ihackernews.com http://ihackernews.com (HN for iPhone/Android).

    Nice work! Can I integrate this service with my HN Mobile Front Page Reader? http://www.vcarrer.com/2010/11/hacker-news-mobile-front-page-reader.html http://www.vcarrer.com/2010/11/hacker-news-mobile-front-page...

      Sure! I love to see others using it :)

    Fantastic, thank you. I used Google Mobilizer before, but it didn't format the site nicely, so I wasn't convinced that it was useful at all (most mobile devices can display full-blown webpages and the Kindle has an "article mode" that's basically readability). Your tool joins pages as well, which is fantastically useful, and formats the page nicely, which is, again, very handy. I'm not sure this feature belongs in historious (rather than having people do it themselves), but I've linked to you for now, thank you for providing this service!
