I love this! I feared that Instapaper development would stagnate after Marco sold it. Even though he said that they will develop a lot of new features, you know how it often times is when companies/apps get bought. But i'm happy to see quite the contrary! What i love about Instapaper is the fact, that it doesn't fuck around. It tries to be one thing and one great thing only. I don't want to see tweets, i don't want to see related articles or what other people think besides my texts. Instapaper comes as close to reading a ebook/book as it could get. At least for me.

Instapaper actually stagnated before Macro sold it (which he will admit to). Betaworks has been very active on it since day one.

> I feared that Instapaper development would stagnate after Marco sold it. Unfortunately "not stagnating" and "developing a lot of new features" these days usually means you will in fact soon start seeing tweets, related articles and what other people think besides your texts. Which is a shame, because I too love the minimalistic approach of Instapaper.
