from another thread and some of my own


one thing i recommend is grabmybooks
http://grabmybooks.com/
along with calibre
http://calibre-ebook.com/

grabmybooks is an addon for firefox, chrome and (free 5 article per book, or $1.35 unlimited) android app
that'll grab a webpage or rss feed (or multiple ones) into an epub ebook (you can even use multiple rss or atom feeds to create a 'newspaper' epub

calibre (windows mac or linux and FREE) allows conversion of ebooks (pdf<>epub<>mobi) and so on
also acts as a 'library/book database'
