What to Read Next : InstaRank – v1.0
What to Read Next : InstaRank – v1.0
Instapaper’s new(ish) InstaRank feature on iOS is really helpful for picking out what to read next. It lets me find what’s popular now from among the articles in my reading list and lets me filter my list based on the amount of time I have to read.
One of our ambitions since taking on Instapaper has been to build useful ways to make the reading experience more productive. To us, that means making it easy to find the best article to read (or video to view) for the moment you’re in. To that end, we’ve added a bunch of sorting and filtering capabilities into the new iOS 7 app for iPhones. (They’ll show up in the very near future on our iPad and Android apps, and in the web interface.)
Tumblr for iPhone/iPad
Tumblr, excellent work with the new version of your iOS app. I, and many others I’m sure, appreciate the Markdown support and the new iPad version.
The Book of the Future
This isn’t the book of the future, but the cartoon is still imaginative.
Jet-pack friendly reading material is important. Maybe books will go here, and we’ll have to deal the distracted flying issues.
I’m glad we got the Kindle and iPad instead of this 1933 imagining of a futuristic book reader.

John Gruber on the new iPad
John Gruber’s review of the new iPad is enough to make anyone start checking their credit limit to see if they can afford the latest toy from Apple.
Pixels pixels pixels. Battery battery battery. Speed speed speed.
That’s the new iPad, a.k.a. (for comparison’s sake) the iPad 3. The retina display, significantly faster graphics, and the potential for startlingly fast cellular networking — all with the same renowned battery life (and standby time) as the original iPad and iPad 2.
I will not buy the new iPad any time soon, but won’t let that stop me dreaming.
