In this blog post, we explore the concept of speed reading and how it can be improved without sacrificing reading comprehension. Speed reading involves recognizing and absorbing phrases or sentences on a page quickly, instead of focusing on individual words. To boost speed reading skills, the Pointer Method, Tracker-and-Pacer Method, and Scanning (or Previewing) Method are outlined and described. Additionally, the RSVP (Rapid Serial Visual Presentation) method is introduced as another technique that can be used to improve speed reading. Finally, the Readima Chrome extension is introduced as a tool that incorporates all of these methods and can help users improve their speed reading skills.

The blog post talks about the Scan and Skim feature of the Readima extension for Google Chrome, a tool that aims to help users read faster with improved comprehension. The feature highlights the first and last sentence of each paragraph, allowing the reader to quickly scan and identify main ideas and key points of a text. This feature is especially useful for longer pieces of text such as articles, research papers, and books, and it is closely related to reading techniques like meta-guiding and Serial Visual Presentation (RSVP). The extension is also customizable, allowing users to adjust settings to suit their personal reading preferences. In summary, the feature is a powerful tool that allows users to read more efficiently and retain more information
