Learn Speedreading the quick and easy way!

Speed ​​reading.

Because I am very eager to learn and therefore read a lot, it seemed like a good idea to learn speed reading.
I have also read a book about it, from the famous Tony Buzan, the inventor of the "Mindmap" but, although I find it a nice and useful book (it mainly refers to "ordinary", so tangible books), it is less suitable for learning speed reading on a computer.

• A tip that I remember from that book is to follow with your finger the text to read, something the masters and teachers have taught you NOT to do in primary school unfortunately (because it would look "bad").
  Unfortunately, because if you try, you will soon notice that your reading pace, and also your text comprehension immediately progresses.

This works fine with a book or newspaper, but with a computer, tablet or phone screen, this is not a good option.

• As an aside, I consider speed reading as something that you prefer to use for non-fiction such as textbooks, reports, newspaper articles, and so on.
  I do not think it is suitable for literature. Not that it is not possible, but I believe that literature is there to enjoy and especially to take you at a leisurely pace.
  Speed ​​reading can be compared to running, reading with walking and enjoying reading is perhaps best with strolling on a mild spring day through an interesting landscape. With sufficient interesting variety in the landscape, strolling can easily and unnoticeably change to walking and even fast walking if there seems to be enough exciting to discover in the landscape. But that is very different from the running that you want to gather as much knowledge as possible and to remember as quickly as possible. The landscape must then contain as few distracting elements as possible.
  Incidentally, there are non-fiction books with a literary ( or at least well written ) content, a nice mix that I like to read, such as the books by **Yuval Noah Harari **"Sapiens" and "Homo Deus" that I recently read with great pleasure.

A few days ago I discovered an interesting computer program with which you can quickly read texts very fast as well as do all sorts of trainings for faster reading..

It is called: SPREEDER CX.

It is for sale for € 22 here:
https://www.spreeder.com/cx/

The nice thing is that it is more than a course.

It is also a program where you can read documents, PDFs, Word and txt documents as well as websites (not all, Steemit can not be read with it, or limited because those pages are generated on the fly and do not really exist. You can copy a steemit article though and paste it in Spreeder to read it)

Anyway it is really interesting to see how that works, you can test it yourself quickly on this website, where you can also paste a text yourself:

You can adjust the speed yourself, the number of words per line, there are a number of different ways to read a text with Spreeder.
