## Description

Rhythms, the only WordPress plugin that automatically optimizes your website with
lesser-known speed-reading hacks so that your readers can read your content faster
than anywhere else on the web.

## FAQ

  What happened to my website after I installed Rhythms?

It’s been optimized and you are now reading so fast your brain can’t keep up. Keep
reading. Your brain needs to get used to ingesting information at this rapid pace.
If you start to feel light headed we’d recommend reading a regular book for a while
while sipping cold water.

This plugin is magnificent. Bravo. There are some things in life that make one stop,
if only for a moment, and pause to appreciate the beauty of the world and wonder
about the meaning of our shared existence. First there were the great pyramids of
Giza. Then there was the Colosseum. Now there is Rhythms. Move over DaVinci and 
Michelangelo; Levy’s in town and he’s not going anywhere.
