I see myself clipping material from the web and wanting to move it to Kindle to read. What is the most efficient way to do this?

Any thoughts are greatly appreciated.
even on devices that support pdf's 6 inch screen do not really cut it - i have purchased the sony 600, kindle 2, sony prs-500 and finally the kindle DX - I use the Kindle DX exclusivley now - there are detractors to be sure but the amazon book prices are great - their selection is the best and the pdf support while not complete is very solid on the DX - (I regularly read 1000 page plus scanned law book pdf's)
