An app to save sites / read later

Hey there,

I read quite a lot of articles off HN, I usually have all 8 tabs in my iPhone full of sites sites I've read but want to save. Often I will email myself the link, however then it gets caught up in my inbox and not the best way to search.

Is there an app/site where I save these urls, tag them and possibly even take a image/pdf of the site, so if it goes down or offline reading I can still access the content.

Something like Delicious but it doesn't seem to do the offline part.

What do you use to keep track of interesting links?

I think you want two services here; Instapaper for the offline reading part, Pinboard for the archive part. I use Instapaper for the 'read later/offline' stuff, as a) it works on the web, iPad, iPhone, & Kindle and b) it's great at syncing. Pinboard will let you save URLs and tag them, and with a pro account it'll keep a copy of the page for you.

I use readability, it even has the option to send to my kindle directly.

kippt.com, then I send most of my "read later" stuff to my kindle.
