Spreeder

I just got turned onto this tool called Spreeder by the v-log "Command-N" I'm not into Macs but they link to some cool web 2.0 sites and neat tools like this one.
I'm still trying to determine if this is a worthwhile tool but it helped me get through a couple of articles that I was trudgeing through. It's a web tool that forces you to read fast by flashing the text by one word at a time. It's kind of hard to absorb it all but I think it worked. Just don't blink. Copy the text you want to read into it and hit play. I rate it as a 3 out of 5 spiffys.
