Stumbling through the StumbleUpon website, I found a great website that can help you to increase your reading speed.
There are two aspects to be considered in reading:
1. Understanding
2. Speeding
So, here are probably the two cases you are facing:
1. You can read in a fast manner but understand nothing at end of it.
2. You understand everything you read but take a whole day to read it.
So, none of them are good, right?
It was inspiring to learn how to read fast and at the same time understand what you read. In essence, you gain more knowledge in a short time.
To progressively increase your reading speed, you can have a try on Spreedr. It is an online speed reading utility to train you read faster. Once you get into the habit of speed reading, you can increase the speed as you understand what you read. On the other hand, if you feel you cannot get what you read as you progress, you can decrease the speed again before you try to increase the speed again.
Spreedr does this by flashing words at a rapid rate, which helps in three ways:
1. Reduce subvocalization
2. Increase chunk comprehension
3. Eliminate backreading
Speedr is integrated with Keyboard shortcuts, so you can make the access to this online utility even faster.
