Every day we browse sites, infact a lots of them. Sometimes we like to print some content from a site. But often, we find that the web pages contain irritating advertisements and other unwanted content. It not only wastes the printer ink and other resources but leaves unwanted content in the hard copy. Finally, I came across a great, useful, easy and free online service: PrintWhatYouLike.com is a simple point-and-click element removal tool to make printing sites and pages without printer-friendly links much easier, and without any software.

Paste in the URL of a site, and you’ll get a left-hand sidebar that lets you click and and remove pictures, headlines, and other page elements. You can pull out the background image, isolate selected parts of the page, and even resize individual elements, all in the name of reducing ink usage and improving readability.

Better still, you can copy a link to the page you’ve just hacked to bits, giving web site owners with popular pages a free resource for printer-friendly versions.
