Instapaper is an excellent app for reading web pages offline. It’s optimized for readability on your iPhone or iPod Touch’s screen. It’s very useful for long articles and blog posts that you find during the day and would like to read, but don’t have the time when you find them. Save with Instapaper, then read later when you’re commuting, in a meeting, or waiting in line.
