Speed Reading
What is jetzt?
'Jetzt' is a Chrome extension that enables a spritz-like speed reading experience. Users initiate jetzt by pressing alt-s and clicking on the text block they want to read. Users can adjust the reading size with +/-, go faster or slower with up/down arrow keys, and go back or forward a sentence with left/right arrow keys. Pause with space, switch between light or dark themes with 0, and toggle summary statistics with / or ? at the end of a run. Close the reader with an escape key.
