www.telegraph.co.uk I've often wondered about speed-reading. The way I attempted it was to read the first line of each paragraph and miss all the detail. I only used this method if I didn't really want to read the information at all. My approach turns out to be the wrong way to speed-read. There's an exciting new concept. A new development called #Spritz redefines that term.
Highly skilled people at Boston-based start up company Spritz have created the program that could revolutionize the way we read. Based on reading at the top speed, you could absorb the first in JK Rowling's series of books in just 77 minutes.

www.t3.com The app could let you read novels like Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone at 1,000 words per minute. There are different settings for high-speed reading, from 250 words per minute to 500 wpm as well as the highest setting. If you hop over on the link shown below, you can try the method for yourself. It's amazing!
It works by using an Optimal Recognition Point, a mark slightly left of centre of each word—the exact point at which the brain deciphers the sequence of letters.
Spritz highlights the letter of each word in red in the same position no matter how long the word is. The screen shows one word at a time. Your eye remains fixed on that point and your brain absorbs the information, rather your eye than roving over the page or screen. This eliminates movements from word to word and sentence to sentence.
Here's the link to the Spritz method: http://t.co/aW8xjOCPnV
Try it yourself. However, I couldn't find any information on purchasing the app. Maybe it's not on the market yet. I'd like to use it on my Kindle. What do you think of the reading method?
