Print Friendly

We've had a lot of great bloggers join the OSR blogosphere since Jeff Rients gave this sage advice on his blog last year, so I think it's a good idea to pass this around again. If you're a blogger, this button is a great thing to add to the bottom of each blog post; it lets readers print your post off or turn it into a PDF. I don't know how many great blog posts I've saved this way, and how many other great blog posts I've been frustrated to find I'd have to copy into a Word or Text document or lose track of. Please, give the OSR blogosphere a great Christmas present and make the stuff that you're already posting easily save-able for the rest of us. Thanks!

  1. You can also use the print-friendly bookmarklet on this page to add PrintFriendly functionality to any page. (Search the page for "printfriendly" to find it.)

  2. Tried to add it, but it's not working for me. I get to the "Import Page Element" and click "Add Widget" and it just goes back to that page.

  4. Thanks for the reminder. I had it when I was on blogger but having moved to self hosting I need to re-add it.
