Brian Donohue and Rodion Gusev, writing on Instapaper’s weblog:

This year Instapaper celebrated its tenth birthday and, now that we are an independent company, we’ve been thinking a lot about the next ten years of Instapaper and beyond.

To ensure Instapaper can continue for the foreseeable future, it’s essential that the product generates enough revenue to cover its costs. In order to do so, we’re relaunching Instapaper Premium today.

Instapaper Premium includes full-text search, unlimited notes, and more. I don’t plan on signing up at the moment, but I’m glad they’re taking the necessary steps toward profitability.
