I don't see what's wrong with it, but I think that it's probably more useful as a postview. Personally, I tend to combine my postview periods with my first activation period. This involves a mind-map of the contents as the material I photoread tends to be technical. I would imagine that this is more effective because you've got the material into your subconscious after the photoreading step, and so it should probably do more good then.

Just my two cents.
