Spreed makes speed reading online text content easy. Use Spreed and train yourself to double your reading speed.
Spreed is an extension that helps you speed read through selected text on a website. Speed reading hinges on the reader's ability to silence his or her inner voice sounding each word out as he or she reads. Spreed is an extension that trains you to read faster while eliminating this subvocalization. The average person reads at 200 words per minute; using Spreed, you can easily train yourself to read at 400 words per minute--that's one hour of time saved if you usually spend two hours a day reading online content.
This extension is terrific!! I absolutely love it. I use Project Gutenberg books with this & practice speed reading. It allows you to set font size, WPM, words per line & more. Fully customizable & free!

This seems to work pretty well, but the timing for words is a little strange? it pauses on long words about twice as long as the short words, which is just a bit longer than what feels natural. The only option in the settings is to turn this completely off, instead of adjusting it a little bit.
It's worth noting that in the UI for this chrome extension, there's a button that says "Click here to upgrade" and links to ShiftReader
