Read Shape Up by basecamp on a kindle / reMarkable / eReader

Basecamp's new book Shape Up is now available online (https://basecamp.com/shapeup) to read page-by-page.

There is a .pdf version, but that's not the best format for Kindle / other eReaders. Instead, we can convert the page-by-page into an eReader friendly format.

Part 1: Convert to a single page

NOTE: This has only been tested on Chrome
