Just last night I found PDFmyURL thanks to cnet.

Simply put, it converts websites into PDFs making it handy for reading offline, putting on an e-book reader or just filing away. Updated versions of Adobe reader have a ‘Read out loud’ function (click on view at top of the PDF, it’s located at the bottom (for my non tech readers)) This means that the blind and visually impaired can listen to websites, blogs etc. being read out without having to install software to do so. I think that’s pretty good.

Best of all PDFmyURL is free and extremely easy to use. So off you go now and convert this blog (not the whole thing, just whatever posts appear on the main page) into a pdf and read at your leisure.
