Newspapers offer print-friendly downloadable papers

The Daily Telegraph has announced a download-and-print version of its popular daily newspaper. It includes a news, business, TV listings, sport and puzzles page and is, in essence, a condensed form of the actual paper.

It's an interesting idea and one that will help spark interest in newspaper content amid the blog culture of the modern internet. But unilke previous ideas this one seems like a winner. After all I'd rather have something to read in my hand if I'm scanning a newspaper. It is much more eye-friendly and easy to download for anyone. You can even download and print only the bits you're interested in.

It really is a printable alternative to a feed-reader and a great idea for quick read content.

The Guardian also offers a download edition.
