If you’re interested in the concept of speed-reading, but applications like ZAP Reader and Spreeder haven’t really managed to impress you, then giving a service like Readfa.st a look is the obvious thing to do. This new speed-reading application is going to let you take all these texts that could pose any kind of difficulty, and have them rendered using an interface that minimizes distractions, and which accelerates the way in which the whole text can be comprehended.
Readfa.st employs game mechanics to let users approach texts, and to enable them to build a reading schedule which suits their actual needs as accurately as possible. In particular, Readfa.st resorts to frequent quizzes in order to check comprehension, and to let users measure how much they’re improving.
Readfa.st is a free service, and there’s nothing to download or install if you intend to use it. And you can get going without even needing to create an account first, too – you can sign in using your Facebook credentials, and skip the entire registration process.
