<\/p>\n
Today, we\u2019re announcing that Pinterest has entered into an agreement to transfer ownership of Instapaper to Instant Paper, Inc., a new company owned and operated by the same people who\u2019ve been working on Instapaper since […] 2013.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Instapaper has an interesting story.<\/p>\n
One of the first “read-it-later” services out there it was my service of choice before it was wrapped up and sold off to betaworks in 2013 and then a few years later Pinterest of all people.<\/p>\n
Today the they’ve announced the service will be returning to its independent origins and in 21 days will begin to operate on its own as a new company.<\/p>\n
It might be time to return the Instapaper bookmarklet back to my favourites bar.<\/p>\n
