Just think, you'd have to spend just half the time on the forum!
I played with it the other day, it works but I'm not sure I'd enjoy reading a novel at 550wpm.
Reading fast is one thing, understanding what you read is another and remembering it is three different things.
350wpm was just right but doing that for 30 minutes straight, while say, on a train to work in the morning, I wonder how much sinks in.
for me, part of reading is having the imagination also running alongside in your head - with Spritz you're too busy with the act of reading and keeping up.
it would be good to try over a couple of weeks and seeing how you felt Spritz reading one of your favourite books.
I wonder if it was developed by auctioneers for auctioneers.

i doubt it, it only goes to 1000wpm.
they would have to take Valium to get down to that level !!!
Reading is one thing. Retaining useful knowledge is something very different. Still, it's an impressive app.
I'll martyr myself and try to read a book with it at some point
There's a huge difference when you read something that holds your interest versus something that does not. I read Stephen King's "The Stand", which is somewhere between 1100 ad 1200 pages, in three days. There have been other novels I have given up on after reading the first three pages.
