Hi all,
A few years ago, HP had a great online service called "Instant
Delivery." If you left your computer and printer on at night, it
would fetch an abbreviated, formatted-for-print copy of any of
hundreds of newspapers, daily tip sheets, etc. They discontinued it a
while back -- see http://www.instant-delivery.com
I would like to find a free service that does the same thing today. I
am NOT looking for a way to automatically print a regular web page of
newspaper web sites -- I'm looking for a service which will
automatically fetch and print an abbreviated and print-formatted
version of a number of content sources.
For comparison, have a look at www.newsstand.com -- this is close, in
that it provides print-formatted content, but in this case, it's the
full newspaper (I only want abbreviated content -- between 1 and 4
pages ish), the printing is not
automatic, and it costs money.
Here's a link to an archived example of the kind of content and
formatting I'm looking for -- this is from when Instant Delivery was
around:

NOTE: This is a re-post of a question I asked 10 months ago, but
closed with no answer. I'm now tripling the bid and hoping to find
something again -- maybe something new since January.
