Re:Tim Ferriss's Speed Reading Method, in a Chrome Extension by ntoscano on Thursday September 24, 2015 @03:29PM (#10274024)
Tim Ferriss, in his "How to Triple Your Reading Speed in 20 Minutes", shows us a pretty neat trick to increase our reading speed. The only issue is, it only works for reading we do on paper. As you all know, most of our reading happens online nowadays. This chrome extension takes his method and allows you to apply it to any webpage/online articles.

Thomas Frank breaks down the math in a video. Basically our eyes take so long to move and refocus, then read. The lines added by the chrome extension give you a target for your eyes to help practice using your periferal vision, requiring fewer eye movements to read a line.
