Instapaper (Finally) Adds Tags for Better Organization »

Instapaper has added Tags on top of Folders for even better organization – and has teased a multi-column view.

Introducing Tags for Better Organization!

Tags are a great way to organize your articles with increased flexibility over folders, and are now live across all platforms.

Instapaper will continue to support both Folders and Tags to organize articles, and we’ve made it easy to convert folders into tags.

I’m super excited for this – my biggest problem with Instapaper long-term was that any effort I spent organizing items into folders was lost once they went into the archive. Here’s a post from 2015 where I mention it, for example.

Now, I can tag & organize stories in the best read-it-later format available – Instapaper.

Plus, they’re adding a new multi-column view, seen here:
