Pretty interesting stuff.
What was strange for me is that I had no problem reading 90% of that at the same pace as I usually read except for word I have never seen before.
I tend to speed read contextually skipping over words entirely. Maybe a bad thing now that i think of it...
- mgrennan 11y agoThat's interesting. I once ask a friend who speed reads to read his book to me. He said no because if he did he wouldn't be able to understand it himself. He said he read in ideas or pictures. He explained speed reading was like watching a movie. If he would have to explain what he was seeing or read every word and that was more work then he could do and follow along. It was at this point I understood how different people read differently.
- dogma1138 11y agoI had no problems either, and i don't really speed read... That said it's most likely because my brain has a look forward / glance over paragraph mode which is probably engaged all the time. To verify this i took a print screen and it was considerably harder to read. So the ease of readability to me was because the word blinked at least once in the correct order and it registered even if i didn't get to it yet.
