Spritz seems legit...



I can do about 600 words per minute comfortably. Beyond that, I start to lose track of what's being said.
 
^^ Played around with openspritz for a bit and had some issues on a local server with the readability API getting a 127.0.0.1 URL to grab data from so I just made it any URL. I loaded it up with that quick edit to spritz any URL and seems to work well. (use http:// ie. http://yahoo.com)

Awesome stuff man! If it now could also work with pdf documents that would be great. And maybe a box where you can just paste text?

I wonder if you could further increase your reading speeds if you practice phrase reading and it just blinked blocks of 4-5 words..

EyeQ does this at higher levels, it's pretty neat. I really like the EyeQ software. Spritz is nice, but it's kind of forced and doesn't let you jump around at will. It'd be good for practice, and EyeQ has drills that are essentially Spritz where it only shows a line of text and will start at slower WPM and gradually speed up. I swear messing around with that program back in the day made me better at video games.

Another reading "hack" that I've seen and really enjoy is BeeLine Reader :: Read Faster on Mobile Devices and Computers . It takes text and adds a blue/red/white color gradient to it to make it easier to read.
 
In a society where doing things faster in exchange for doing them terribly this will be a success

BRB GOING TO OPEN A CROSSFIT READING GYM WHERE PEOPLE USE SPRITZ TO READ AND WORKOUT. MAKING ALL KINDA GAINZ.
