Longreads to Reeder to Readability to Kindle
longreads.com is a great source of long-form stuff to read online. I subscribe to their RSS feed and many others via Google Reader. I also subscribe to a service called Readability, which lets me read stuff online without the visual clutter that surrounds most content, and to directly pay the content producers for any lost revenue from my stripping out those ads. I also own an Amazon Kindle.
And now these great systems all play together really smoothly, thanks to Reeder, and to the Readability-Kindle integration. Reeder is a really smooth and easy-to-use Mac app which lets me plow through my Google Reader feeds and easily add content to Readability. And my Readability list is now synced to my Kindle just like a magazine subscription. So longreads posts a new article, which shows up in Reeder, I add it to Readability for later, and I can read it on my Kindle in the park!
