Your feeds, your bookmarks and your saved searches all work this way, and one button sends the article full screen when you want the whole page. Settings and Find Articles use both columns too. Beautiful Themes Three themes to read in: Aqua, Classic, and Terminal in green, amber or chrome. Aqua and Classic follow your system's light and dark setting, or stay on the one you prefer.
