TidyRead Makes Webpages more Readable
Tweet TidyRead extracts the text from almost any web site and displays it on an easy to read page that removes all of the clutter that can make reading on the internet so hard sometimes. The tool comes in the form of bookmarklet (or Firefox add-on), so all you really need to do is to drag the bookmarklet to your favorite browser (all supported), then click on it while you reading stuff over the web. Instantly, you'll be able to change the font size, choose your page style and adjust the margin.
TidyRead also works on iPhone or iPod touch, follow the instructions here.
Basically it's just a simply & smart tool that I don't see any reason why you won't use it in your browser (at least the bookmarklet). But personally I think TidyRead should enable people to grab the code for their own blog or site, and allow anyone who read them to simply click on a button for a better reading experience. I know I'd like to provide this kind of tool to my readers.

Orli, TidyRead widget is released and the code can be copy and paste on a blog post or news article. Thanks.
Anonymous as TidyRead team?
Yes, saw it and tried it, but I meant a button not in a logo size :)
Orli, you can customize the "img" tag with your own image (or change "img" to button, link or clickable text), but keep "id", "rel", "widget" and "style" untouched. We document this on the page now.
BTW, TidyRead for iPhone/iPod works well now, see http://tinyurl.com/cwdjsn
Orli, We gave you a special thanks at TidyRead homepage
