I will occasionally post an article to finish reading it later, but that almost always means that I'm interested in what I've read, and I don't have the time to enjoy it.

It might also be considered that the web is like a magazine when you are looking for something to read. You flip through, scan an article, flip through some more, then finally settle upon something that catches your interest. Visiting a page in a magazine isn't considered a commitment.
