For instant Mini-Web, just use this browser:

For even better instant Mini-Web, just use Instapaper.

Which was inspired by the Readability experiment[1]. Not to mention that Safari has a similar feature now. Overall I like this approach better because I don't want to limit myself to a tiny subset of the web.

As far as I remember, the Instapaper simply saves web pages for reading later. Although it may somehow facilitate easy reading of long text content (e.g., by moving it into another reading platform like Kindle), but not too much.

[adambyrtek]

When you click on a "Text" button in Instapaper you get a simple uncluttered textual representation of the page.

Unlike Mini-WWW, the problem with Instapaper is the resulting format is the SAME for all pages! It's rather boring world!

Once again, any software, or any web browser (be it Lynx, Apple's Safari, or mobile ones) needs to LOAD WEBPAGE FIRST! FULLY! And that's for some users may be a very serious obstacle!

AFAIK Lynx does not download images, Javascript or CSS files, leading to significant reduction in total download size.

[Mini-WWW]

There is a big difference between forcing the dumb cut for a significant part of page's representation (e.g., by Lynx), and showing the creatively minimized images, JavaScript, and CSS files in Mini-WWW's pages.
