What to Do First: Add Something to Read
If you're new around here you probably have an empty reading list. Well we can solve that in no time. The coolest part about Read It Later is that you can save links to your list from all over the place.
Save From Mobile Safari
This is where I'd start if I were you. Read It Later provides you with bookmarklets that can be installed into your web browser. This way you can start saving pages to your list directly from your device.
Wondering what a bookmarklet is? A bookmarklet is just a like a bookmark, but instead of opening a link, it performs an action on the page you currently have open. In the case of Read It Later, the bookmarklet saves the pages you find to your reading list.
To add the bookmarklets to Mobile Safari, select 'Add' from the main menu. Then select 'Mobile Safari' and follow the instructions from there.
Save From Your Computer
Read It Later works in every web browser and even has an award winning Firefox extension (if that's your thing). If you save a link on your computer, it'll seamlessly make it's way to your device.
