Google Chrome is one of our favorite browsers on Android and iOS, but it doesn't support extensions or let you easily add bookmarklets. This means you can't do handy things like send articles to a read it later service directly from the mobile browser. However, it's not impossible, and tech blog Digital Inspiration shows how to use bookmarklets to accomplish it.
First things first, you need to get the bookmarklets you want installed in Chrome on your desktop (to get you started, here are a few we like: Evernote, Readability, Instapaper, Pocket, Kindle). Now, make sure your mobile version of Chrome syncs with your desktop version (Settings > Email > Service > Sync).
Now, in mobile Chrome, start typing the name of the bookmarklet in the omnibar and it should appear. Select it, and it'll send that web page to the service you choose. For example, type "Send to Evernote" in the omnibar, and your bookmarklet (the one that starts with javascript) appears. Select that, and the web page you're on is sent over. If you're a frequent user of mobile Chrome and a read it later service, it's incredibly helpful to set up a few bookmarklets. Head over to Digital Inspiration for a few more creative uses of bookmarklets on mobile.
