I’ve just updated Instapaper.com with a few new features:
- “Move articles to archive automatically” toggle. Until now, “yes” has been the only behavior. If you uncheck this, articles won’t be automatically marked as read when you click their links to read them. (This behavior does not apply to the iPhone app.)
- Password resets (only if your username is a valid email address)
- Change your username
- Delete your account
Also, the body font is now Helvetica (or Arial on Windows). I’ve never been happy with Georgia’s rendering on Windows, and this makes the site’s main list interface look a bit cleaner.
Sweet! I’m happy to see the website version get some update love. It works great on the Blackberry browser. The archive automatically has been a problem occasionally when I don’t finish an article in one sitting. I do miss the Skip option, though. Apparently I was the only person that had a use for it. It was handy for marking an article I was reading on my phone that I wanted to go back and do something with off my phone, e.g., grab a quote, follow a link, etc.
