A website to help you read at 600 words per minute.

An average human reads at around 200–300 words per minute. However, this speed is hindered by the fact that in between reading the current and the next word, we have to do the tedious and useless task of moving our eyes to the next word. Sucks right?

I stumbled upon this rather interesting gif during my daily session of aimless scrolling on a handful of social media applications. Which combined with ample of free time and trying to keep myself busy so that I don’t go crazy sitting idle during a nationwide lockdown, resulted into a website that can turn any text into the gif you see above.

While it seems like and most probably is just a gimmick, doesn’t hurt to try it out. Maybe you eventually develop faster eyes and awaken your Sharingan.

Here is a link to the website and here is its source code.
