  Pacer – Read Faster on the Web2024 · readwithpacer.weebly.com · ▲5

  Pacer is a Chrome extension designed to help you read faster on the web. I created it out of frustration with alternatives that required copying and pasting text repeatedly.

It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself.
