Read blog entry...Instapaper, Delicious and thinking about tools
It’s interesting that, for a tool to be useful, it doesn’t need to do something new; rather, it can do something old, but in a new way. That new way might be a bit simpler or a bit faster, or it might just be different, and that difference is all it needs to make it useful.

If you have any tips yourself, please do add them to the comments.
