Three things about Marco Arment…
- gr366 17y agoI was a long-time resistor of Instapaper because I had my "to_read" tag in del.icio.us. But I would only very rarely return to that tag and go through items I had bookmarked. Plus I'd feel the need to come up with tags for an article I hadn't even read yet, based on what I thought it was about. I finally started using Instapaper with my iPhone, and can't say how many times I've been stuck somewhere for a few minutes that let me read a longer-form article when I'd have been distracted by 5 other open browser tabs were I on my laptop. Being able to click the Instapaper bookmarklet and not have to think about anything — not even be taken away from the page — has removed all friction from the process. I love it. I didn't even realize you could get a digest sent to your Kindle. I'm going to have to go set that up right now.

- theli0nheart 17y ago> And, that all happened because I clicked one button. If that’s not blowing your mind right now, go read all that again. Because that shit is sick. It's also sick that it took 54.66s for this page to load (over 1.065MB). I went and got some hot chocolate while I was waiting.
