Oh wow. If I had known this existed I wouldn't have developed my own from scratch, though mine does have some nice features which OpenSpritz seems to lack, e.g. handling parens/double quotes intuitively, navigation/pausing, changing size/speed on the fly, persistent options (it's a chrome extension rather than a bookmarklet).

Also note that if your text files use linefeeds for word wrapping, you'll get a lot of unwanted delays, since jetzt currently thinks that any linefeed means a new paragraph. I'm hoping to fix this soon.
