Windows 10’s new Edge browser drags Microsoft’s web efforts
into the modern era, with a blazing fast engine and nifty
forward-thinking tricks like intelligent, automatic Cortana integration
for supplementing the info you’re looking at. But to me, the most
refreshing aspects of Edge are its reader-first extras, which carry over
from Windows 8’s Metro IE app: Reading View and Reading List.
Reading View (the small book icon, next to the bookmark star
in the browser bar) strips away ads, sidebar images, and other clutter
to present a clean, straightforward reading experience. Edge also
supports sharing to the Reading List app, which functions like Pocket or
Instapaper, essentially letting you a story for later reading. To save a
juicy article, simply click the bookmark star and opt to save the
article to your Reading List rather than as a bookmark.
