Comments on: techZING! 9 – I’m Not An Uberman, But I Did Use jQuery Last Night http://techzinglive.com/?p=83 If you're a hacker, you'll probably like our show ;) Thu, 09 Sep 2010 18:51:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: Justice Conder http://techzinglive.com/?p=83&cpage=1#comment-66 Justice Conder Thu, 23 Jul 2009 19:03:15 +0000 http://techzinglive.com/?p=83#comment-66 Hey Jason, I used to do the same thing! I would spend all this time printing out articles, blogs, and wikis so that i could read them in bed at night or later on the couch. You should get a Kindle. I got the Kindle DX and i dont print anything out anymore. I either go directly to the url on the Kindles browser or just save the page as text and drag and drop it onto the kindle. It saves a lot of paper and time, plus i get a bunch of digital programming books for free that i would normally have to pay for (the hard copies). Keep up the great work guys. I love the show!!

It does about 3/4 of what you want. It provides a little bookmarklet to "Read Later". As I browse from site to site, I click my "Read Later" bookmarklet to send that URL to Instapaper. Instapaper will create a text-only version of the site which I can read later. It will even create a printable version complete with newspaper-like 3 column layout. There is even an iPhone application for it. I use this service all the time. It has become part of my daily workflow. Check out an awesome service called Instapaper.

It also makes sites much more pleasant to read. 2) I did the Uberman version of polyphasic sleep for a couple weeks (http://www.pchristensen.com/blog/articles/category/polyphasic/ ). It worked really well but I didn't have enough control over my schedule to keep it up. I can't imagine this working well for anyone with a family, even though Steve Pavlina did it (http://www.stevepavlina.com/blog/2005/10/polyphasic-sleep/ ) Love the show, keep up the good work!
