Why it Works:

Reading is inherently time consuming because your eyes have to move from word to word and line to line. Traditional reading also consumes huge amounts of physical space on a page or screen, which limits reading effectiveness on small displays. Scrolling, pinching, and resizing a reading area doesn’t fix the problem and only frustrates people. Now, with compact text streaming from Spritz, content can be streamed one word at a time, without forcing your eyes to spend time moving around the page. Spritz makes streaming your content easy and more comfortable, especially on small displays. Our “Redicle” technology enhances readability even more by using horizontal lines and hash marks to direct your eyes to the red letter in each word, so you can focus on the content that interests you. Best of all, Spritz’s patent-pending technology can integrate into photos, maps, videos, and websites to promote more effective communication.

 

I cant be the only one exited for this,  this is amazing. Thought Id share this.

 

TL:DR

 

What this pretty much does, it makes your read faster by focusing on one letter in a word.

Try it out:

 

250WPM

 

350WPM

 

500WPM

OH THIS IS SO COOL WHY DIDN'T I THINK OF THIS

Edit: Maybe this will be a common thing and future generations' eyes will barely be able to move. That's probably the only downside of this.

[Zeal]

Wow. Didn't know I could read that fast!

[Imabigmac]

I can't read at 500wpm, simply can't. 

[Musikman]

Now only if this could improve my reaction time in CS.........

[WereCat]

500wpm?.... Meh... I can read twitch chat when linus is streaming and that is at least 500spm (sentences per minute).

Try the chrome extension Spreed, not as good as spritz but still good enough and allows you to read any highlighted text.

I will try that! Thanks

Can read at 500WPM. Pretty cool.

Simply amazing. I hope they get enough funding to implement this into everything. Also, this is the perfect reason to buy a smartwatch. A PERFECT REASON.

Don't blink.  I wish there was slightly more of a pause between sentences on the faster speeds.  Interesting concept though.

Changed the title... That is a good reason

[MasterJV]

Hmm, didn't think I could that fast. Very interesting.

[Hazorazor]

Hopefully they allow it to be a thing where you can just put text in and get an output

[YouRezz]

i can read normally at 500WPM

This reading style is not new - http://www.spreeder.com/app.php?intro=1

However the implementation of it into small form factor technologies can be very interesting... I will look forward to how it turns out!

This is quite interesting, and could possibly actually get me to buy a smart-watch at some point.

THIS IS AMAZING! if small displays like Smart Watches or Google Glass for example, used this texts and emails the problem of having a smaller display is pretty much gone, I use a SW2 and while reading messages quickly to see if it's important or not isn't a problem, reading long emails can be, this would make it really useful on wearable tech. I'm excited, I want it, and now.

Its a really cool idea, but I did all the speeds, and now my eyes kinda hurt and I see a black rectangle every time I blink.

And when I was at above 400 I wasn't blinking, could be straining for a long amount of text.
