PrintNice

By Forrest Smith - Drempd.com

Throughout the week I come across numerous online articles that I would love to read. In the past, I would save these to my e-reader for weekend reading, but there is just something about paper. And so I needed to build myself a way to nicely format and print the articles that I routinely come across.

With my Print Nice functionality, I can just enter a URL for a page, and the web app will pull the article content, format it into multiple columns, and tidy up the font styles (at least most of the time. Since this is just a side project that I don’t get to spend too much time on, it seems to have a 10–20% failure rate. Hopefully at some point I’ll get that down).

I now can sit on the patio on pleasant weekend mornings with my cup of coffee and read through my nice stack of printed articles.
