Omnivore Read=It-Later

If you stick around the Internet long enough, you will inevitably see some of your favorite websites and apps disappear right before your very eyes. Today, many people were disappointed to hear that an incredibly useful and free read-it-later service, Omnivore had been purchased by another company. The announcement email gave users until November 15 to export their saved articles, stating that the companies server's would be erased after that date.

There are a number of other read-it-later services and apps people can turn to. My choice is one that's been around a long time, Pocket, owned by the Mozilla foundation, the organization behind the popular Firefox browser. I like Pocket because it's affordable, less than $4 a month when you pay for a full year. It's archiving feature is limitless and it saves a copy of the articles you add regardless of whether they are later removed by the original publisher. You can add multiple tags to your saved articles and it call all be exported to extensible apps like Obsidian. You can save articles to Pocket with a browser extension or straight from an RSS reader like Inoreader.
