[Instapaper rolls out InstaRank version 2](http://blog.instapaper.com/post/123555634426?ref=birchtree.me):

> Today, we’re excited to announce the release of InstaRank v2, an update to our InstaRank algorithm, which identifies popular, high-quality content across Instapaper. In this update, InstaRank will retain its focus on identifying high-quality content but with an added emphasis on discovering great material from less popular domains.

I switched to Pocket many months ago, but I still use Instapaper's [Instapaper Weekly](http://blog.instapaper.com/post/74088929566?ref=birchtree.me) newsletter to find fun things to read. I also really like their iOS app, which has flourished since Betaworks' acquisition in 2013\. This move to surface great content from smaller websites is a breath of fresh air, and awesome for finding new things to read outside of the typical long form sources.
