I rolled the experimental javascript “speed reading” code (that I wrote a couple of days ago) into a more polished Ubiquity command this evening.  It’s called “Eyes Like Lightning”.

The command can be subscribed to at this gist on github.com. Note that this is a 0.5.3 command and is not compatible with Ubiquity 0.1.9 or lower.  Ubiquity is a FireFox extension that turns your browser into a powerful command-line for the web.  It can be installed from this page.

Eyes Like Lightning uses jQuery heavily and dynamically includes the jQuery-UI library.  The source code might be useful for other Ubiquity developers who want to create pop-up windows or sliders, etc. on top of a web page.

Here’s a little screenshot:
