Hi, I have a huge mountain of articles in my Instapaper queue. It’s so many that I had to ask them how many it was. (4000+, it turned out). I’d like to set up an instapaper weekly goal that I read a certain number each week so as to get it down to zero again. I found a wonderful IFTTT integration that allows for a workaround to Beeminder, doing exactly what I need – [https://ifttt.com/recipes/91467](https://ifttt.com/recipes/91467). Which is to say, every time I archive an article in Pocket, it notifies beeminder. I now have this set up and working in beeminder ([https://www.beeminder.com/strickvl/goals/pocket](https://www.beeminder.com/strickvl/goals/pocket)). But something similar for Instapaper eludes me. Someone on the BM twitter feed suggested [https://twitter.com/bmndr/status/385901433029001216](https://twitter.com/bmndr/status/385901433029001216) I post here and see whether anyone has any bright ideas… Thanks in advance.

Have you considered NOT reading the articles in your queue? Doing a significant purge of all but the most interesting-looking articles? I stopped using Instapaper and Instapaper-like apps because I found that when I’m browsing around online, I tend to find lots of things that “look interesting” at the time, but aren’t actually all that interesting or useful later. Then they just pile up and make me feel guilty for never reading them. Maybe your beeminder goal should be something like “read OR DELETE x articles per week.” On Thu, Oct 3, 2013 at 7:08 PM, Alex Strick van Linschoten [strickarchive@gmail.com](mailto:strickarchive@gmail.com) wrote: > Hi, > > I have a huge mountain of articles in my Instapaper queue.

Yes. That’s what ends up happening. I quickly find lots that are old or that I can’t recall why I wanted to read… But it still doesn’t solve the problem 😉 — Sent from Mailbox for iPhone On Fri, Oct 4, 2013 at 3:28 AM, Katherine Baxter [baxter.katherine@gmail.com](mailto:baxter.katherine@gmail.com) wrote: > Have you considered NOT reading the articles in your queue?

Alex - I do the same thing for my instapaper queue ([instap – aamaras – beeminder](https://www.beeminder.com/aamaras/goals/instap)) This IFTTT recipe sends a plus one when I mark an article ‘to read’: [Log in - IFTTT](https://ifttt.com/myrecipes/personal/3106034/) And this one sends a minus one when I mark an article ‘read’: [Log in - IFTTT](https://ifttt.com/myrecipes/personal/3106024/) Can’t find the instapaper RSS feed addresses in the new site design?

This is wonderful, although when I click on both those IFTTT addresses, they both come up with 404 errors… Maybe you have to make them open for outside viewing? Thank you so much.

Sorry; those IFTTT links probably won’t work (they’re the private addresses rather than the public ones). Should be: read an article: [Log in - IFTTT](https://ifttt.com/recipes/85950) add an article: [Log in - IFTTT](https://ifttt.com/recipes/85393) On Friday, October 4, 2013 4:30:56 PM UTC+2, Aaron Maras wrote: > Alex - I do the same thing for my instapaper queue ( > [instap – aamaras – beeminder](https://www.beeminder.com/aamaras/goals/instap)) > > This IFTTT recipe sends a plus one when I mark an article ‘to read’: > [Log in - IFTTT](https://ifttt.com/myrecipes/personal/3106034/) > > And this one sends a minus one when I mark an article ‘read’: > [Log in - IFTTT](https://ifttt.com/myrecipes/personal/3106024/) > > Can’t find the instapaper RSS feed addresses in the new site design?

What kind of goal should I be choosing when I set this up? Ie am I trying to do a certain number per week (ie ‘do more’) or what?

The number beeminder will track is the number of articles sitting in your archive, so you want a ‘Do Less’ (although mine may be a custom goal for some reason… I forget). In any case, Do Less should work. The (OSX) app ReadKit gives you an unread article count too. This is useful occasionally because the goal can sometimes get slightly out of sync (in particular, if you add an article and then read it before IFTTT checks your feed, the article will show up as ‘read’ but not as ‘added’).

Aaron, you may have done a custom goal. “Do Less” doesn’t work here since that’s for decreasing or eliminating a daily/weekly habit whereas this is reducing a total number of something, like a weight loss goal would. So I’ve helped Alex set it up as a weight loss goal now where he simply put the total number of articles as the “current weight” and set a goal of zero.

looks like I was wrong since the idea of adding a +1 or -1 doesn’t work with a weight loss goal type (since an actual value needs to be added each time for weight loss type). So custom goal it is!

I made a start on a step by step guide here if anyone is interested: [How to track your Instapaper queue with Beeminder · GitHub](https://gist.github.com/aamaras/6924516) . Alex - I haven’t bothered doing anything on the beeminder side, awaiting progress on your new goal type. On Thursday, October 10, 2013 9:19:46 PM UTC+2, Aaron Maras wrote: > Awesome.
