For those who find services like Pocket and Instapaper too sophisticated.
There are many ways to send links, tabs and bookmarks from desktop devices to smartphones. All modern browsers that have a mobile version (the same Chrome, Firefox and Opera) support synchronization. And in order to throw some separate article on a smartphone, there are services like Pocket.
Nevertheless, sometimes all these methods are redundant, and you want something simpler. For example, if you do not use Pocket, you are unlikely to create an account just to send one article to your smartphone.
Synchronization is also not a panacea if you have different browsers installed on your devices. Well, sending yourself links by e-mail is completely bad manners.
The solution is to install a miniature extension for Chrome and Firefox called Tab2QR. It turns the link of the tab you open into a QR code that can be easily read with a smartphone and opened in any browser.
Click the extension button, open any application with a QR scanner on your smartphone, point the camera at the code that appears - and you will be prompted to open the link in your mobile browser. Nothing could be faster.
