Ask HN: Validate this: send me things I want to read as a printed book

3 pointsby blizkreegover 3 years ago
I read a lot of things online - blog posts, twitter threads, newsletters etc. But for a long time now, I&#x27;ve realized it really breaks my flow to be bombarded with this information overload during the course of my regular day. It takes my focus away from more productive work and the constant barrage is unsavory.<p>That said, I also want to consume some of this information. I want to read that post or that thread. I just don&#x27;t want to do it _now_. Of course, I can use something like a mailbrew or similar but it&#x27;s still online in nature.<p>I&#x27;m curious to hear thoughts on a service that you send links to as you collect them. Just prior to end of month, the service prints it all in reader mode and ships them to you as a little book so you can read this stuff in peace, _offline_.

I might be misunderstanding the service you are suggesting here, but are you suggesting printing a physical book containing a bunch of saved blogs, articles and twitter threads? If so, the number of articles that I would want to have them physically printed are very few, if any.<p>But on the other hand if you mean a book as in making a small little ebook, that I could read on my phone offline, I would be interested in a service like that. It would also depend on how the articles and blog posts are extracted, as in, if the blog is technical in nature with code snippets and stuff will the ebook version have that too.

The read it later service &quot;Pocket&quot; syncs to some ereaders, like &quot;Kobo&quot;. That&#x27;s very convenient.
