Tools for the online reading of the future

Just saw an article about some neat tools for simplifying your online reading experience. They bookmark things and/or make it easy to save reading to a mobile device.

Readability = This is what they call a bookmarklet. It reformats the text so that you don't see the adds and extra side bars, and does it in various modes - Newspaper, Novel, eBook.

Instapaper = a way to mark a text in your browser and then either read it later via your Instapaper account or more conveniently save it to another mobile device for easier viewing there.
