do prefer slow reading or speed reading? Okay first, I have something to share with all of you. I have been reading ever since the first grade, I'm really into a lot of books, and I'm pretty fast at reading, but something just hit me today, that my conscience was telling me that I needed to slow down and not read to fast, and today I'm going to make the transition to become a slow reader forever... I know some people get so bogged down of their reading speeds and see all these commercial advertisements on TV and the Internet of how glorious speed reading is, and how it's better than snail reading, but why do some of you worry too much about it? Why can't some of you accept the cards that were dealt for you? Isn't better to read a novel at a slower pace than pressing fast forward on the speed reading button? Well, that's up to you to decide, but learn at your own pace I say, and take your time. So any of you prefer slow reading or speed reading? Any switches between slow reading to speed reading or vice versa?
Reading Speed Improvement Software? Does anyone know of any good speed reading software? I'm not into actual "speed-reading" and I know that speed reading makes your comprehension suffer- its just that I need to improve how fast I read, because I'm slower than my peers, which definitely matters on the SAT. I've looked into the "Evelyn Wood Reading Dynamics", but that's not really what I'm looking for. I'm looking for SOFTWARE, not books or courses.
Speed-reading help? Do you have any tips on reading faster? It doesn't have to be speed-reading, but more than a page a minute with acceptable retention. I'm pretty intelligent, but thorough. Thus a moderately slow reader. I look up words. I pause and question, thinking through answers. I get emotionally involved; empathizing with those written about, feeling their situations, piecing it with my past experiences. This takes time, but can be helpful to cement ideas and cross-link them with previous knowledge. I habitually never reread books, but saturate myself in them in the first reading--retaining what's important, including subjective facets and my interpretations. I've tried speed-reading tips before (not a course), but the problem seems to be that I need the time to think over what I've read. Maybe I'm anxious over books I feel are "important" in some way, and that slows me down. But glancing quickly over the words doesn't seem to allow me the time to process what I've read. I'd love to find a way around this, if you know Maybe the correction could come in my retention techniques. Instead of pausing to think things over and ask questions as I read, maybe I should adopt a more standardized, streamlined pre-read/SQ3R/mind-map method, and just let the chips fall where they may on any given book. Any help will be appreciated! Thanks!

Just recently, I "Stumbled Upon" this website (using the StumbleUpon toolbar): http://www.speedreadingisreal.com/ The website is hilariously cheesy sometimes, and uses every marketing tactic you've already seen.

Now here's the question: why is this the only speed reading product that doesn't have testimonials all over the website? I couldn't find a single one. It really doesn't add up. Can someone please explain?
