Speed Reading Application

2008-07-28 Thread Charles Pax
I just saw this post on Digg:
http://digg.com/software/Read_Faster_Way_Faster_No_really_I_mean_WAY_faster

There is a web application that flashed individual words from a body of text
you input. Is anyone interested in an app like this on Openmoko?

The app: http://www.spreeder.com/

I actually made something similar a month or two ago, although
admittedly it's not as pretty and refined:  http://jefftickle.com/spead/

I had planned on starting a project for this on the OM, although the
real world has me tied up all this week.

Hi, Jeff. After using the application I found on Digg I thought that it
would be nice if it would pause at each new line and I could select how many
words it flash. It's very cool that you app does this. I wonder how much
this would improve reading an ebook on the Freerunner's small screen. Keep
up the good work!
