Spreeder

For my next DDL, I have chosen an online application called Spreeder.

The concept behind it is simply. When you read to yourself, you can only read about 200 wpm, which is about what you can read out loud. This is because of the inner voice that reads the text in your mind while reading silently.

This is an incredibly inefficient way of reading, because our mind can process information much more faster than we can read aloud.

Here's a quick review by a fan of Spreeder:


Spreeder simply takes the text you paste into the online application, digitizes it, and replays it in a video at a much faster rate (normally around 300 wpm for beginners, and even 1000+ wpm for faster spreeders).

This application can cause you to understand data much faster than simply reading. If you don't believe me, time your self reading this post, then copy the text into the spreeder application and see how much better it can be.

  1. Hey, thanks for this spreeder is awesome. I am going to use it to read faster. Hopefully I can take the skills from it and use it in normal reading on printed media.
