jetzt is a speed-reader extension for chrome inspired by Spritz.
This is very much beta software so a proper chrome extension package is not currently provided. Instead: clone this repository, then, in chrome, navigate to chrome://extensions , enable developer mode, click "Load unpacked extension..." and select the directoy you cloned.
Remember to pull every now and then for bugfixes and new features.
Control is currently keyboard-only.
