Why You Should Use Bionic Reading in Chrome (or Any Browser)
www.howtogeek.com
We’re all constantly absorbing information online. Bionic reading is an approach to reading that can help you read faster, retain more information, and boost your productivity in your favorite web browsers—like Chrome.

Bionic Reading is a new way of reading text that uses a patented algorithm to highlight the most important parts of words, making it easier and faster to read. The method was developed by a German software developer named Renato Cukar, who was inspired by the way the human eye reads text.

Bionic Reading works by highlighting the most important parts of words, which helps the eye to follow the text more smoothly and efficiently. This makes it easier to read longer passages of text, and can also help to improve comprehension.

Bionic Reading is available as a free Chrome extension, as well as a mobile app for iOS and Android. It can also be used on websites and in PDFs.

    I find the main problem here to be that you have to grant the extension access to everything you’re viewing online. Granted we can inspect the code to check if it calls to some third party and leaks your data, but staying on top of that on the daily just seems unlikely for me. Maybe I’m just weird like that.
