Wow. I've tried a few apps and extensions that try to do this. But this extension does it beautifully. One question - "Smart Speed" is an option. It includes a question mark icon "?" that a user would assume provides more explanation on that feature. However, it doesn't do anything. And I tried to find what the difference is between having just this one option on or off, but couldn't. I realize it is still in beta, so tiny bugs are to be expected and I'm overall impressed with it! But could you provide a little insight into this option?

The best RSVP extensions I've run across so far. I wish if there was a "ticker" mode, that could've been even better because the eye as it speeds up will try to read more than one word at a time. I'm waiting to see such a feature in this amazing extension.

Best and simplest application of ORP / speed reading I've seen - and I've been looking a while!

Really nice and aesthetically pleasing speed reader (plus, it's open source :D). Only criticism is the long delay at the beginning. This becomes particularly annoying when reading multiple short chunks of text.

Superb implementation of a speed-reading program that naturally embeds into the browser. My only complaint is it maxes out at 800wpm and it'd be nice to see it go up to 1000. I'm not a super-reader, but I've been speedreading long enough to want to push that boundary, and I'm sure others are faster than me.
