There are many excellent articles and essays on the web. These articles, when found, take time to read and digest. Time I usually don’t have at that moment (I’m usually researching something else). In the past I would save the link on my desktop and promptly forget it. Eventually I’d delete it because I’ve always got other things to do on my computer. I could print the page. But then I’d have to carry the paper and remember to read it instead of remembering to read the link. Same problem, different medium.

The iPhone has such a high-resolution screen that I find it easy to read websites and emails. Plus the iPhone synchronizes bookmarks with my computer. Now when I find a useful article I want to read later, I save it as a bookmark in a “Read” folder. After I sync the iPhone, the “Read” bookmarks are updated and I can pull the article to the iPhone anytime I find myself sitting with a few minutes to spare.
