Readability Bookmarklet Quick-Formats Pages for Smoother Text

A helpful little browser bookmarklet from Arc90 strips all but the main text out of any web page and re-formats its layout, size, and margins, creating a newspaper or novel-like page for easier text digestion.

This is teh awesome for older eyes, and for preparing a page for printing. It works about 80% of the time in my experience. Sometimes it doesn't parse a web page correctly and you get goop, but when it does work, you have a one-step method to produce a more-readable and printable web page. Good on text-heavy pages.
