Forums IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ PhotoReading, Memory Optimizer photoreading on a pc

can anybody give me any sites where books or short stories are on a single-page format online, so i could just hit the down arrow and 'read' at speeds of 100,000+ words per minute. not the correct way to go about this, but i have the feeling i am 'working' too hard on photoreading. i want to have fun, so to speak. also, a good majority of the book deals with non-fiction. any ideas on how photoreading can help with fiction. i want to be able to blast through anything. amd thanks to all of you who have responded to me. you have all taken me from interested to psyched. i want to see if i can go through the written word at speed of light and see if anything sticks. just curious, i guess. not a bad way to be.

You might try debateit.net, where they've got the StereoReading stories/books.

There's really no standard for how these things are done, so your requirement to be able to page through the entire thing directly is not always satisfied.

That would be nice!

Good choice!

Very fun book.

yeah-i think i was using photoreading as an intelligence test or something-making it more work than it should be-i remember in the book paul telling the story of a woman who became more successful at it by deciding she had nothing to prove-playing with it-i have the advantage of listening to all of you, proving that it does work-i'm just gonna get out of the way and let my brain do its thing

Thanks for the links to the online books. I really appreciate it.
