Do you waste too much time reading your daily blogs? Or perhaps you want to read an article, but it’s too damn huge.
Maybe now is the time to try something else.
For all you Mac users out there, here’s a tip about a very underrated and widely unknown Mac OSX feature: the Summarize service.

If you browse the net with the built-in Safari browser, whenever you get to a large text and you’d just want to read the essential part, see what it’s really about, the answer comes in a 3 steps practice:

1. select the text you’re interested about(Cmd+A should do it in most cases)
2. open up the Services menu - to be found in the menu bar, below the name of the current app (in our case, Safari)
3. call out Summarize

You’ll be presented to a text box showing you the summary of the selected text. What’s great is that, depending on the accuracy level you select, you’re faced with a more compact or more detailed text. So you can start from the brief version and expand it if you find interesting thins to read.

So.. no more wasted time reading useless articles that say the same thing with lots of words. Just use the Summarize feature.

PS. To show you how great this Summarize feature is, here’s the summarized version of the above text, at about 50% Summary size. Notice the difference?
