I found that when I did speed read I was really agitated and that meant I couldn't absorb anything from whatever I was reading because I was so focused on reading faster that I didn't really get what the material was saying. Now learning is optimised in a relaxed and resourceful state. Speed reading definitely does not put me in that state and that is a reason why it doesn't work for me.

Photoreading sounds really cool! Think I'll check into it, thanks for the mention...

As for speedreading, yea moving your eyeballs faster, increasing your mental state, and not looking right to the edges of the page... A few other tricks thrown in there but that's the basics. It's like pretty much anything, it works with discipline, it's not a magic wand.

If you want to go one step further check out Photoreading ! You can probably find the learning course off a torrent. I know there's one off www.demonoid.com
Speed reading is just moving your eyeballs faster lol. After a while you tend to fall back into your normal reading patterns. The Photoreading whole mind system is the way to go. I try to practise it quite often. Photoreading is mentally photographing the written page which goes into your subconscious mind and then you activate it consciously through various methods. If you get the photoreading dvds you will see that during the Photoreading retreat (I think last year) that it's just an amazing process. During the five days there, there was one day called the Power Day when you photoread around 20-28 books and activate 4-5. That's a lot of books in one day! Even if you don't photoread, the whole mind system is a system of learning that acknowledges a whole brain approach to learning.

I've been checking into some speedreading stuff lately, as I find it intriguing how some people like the Howard Berg dude can read so fast and still retain the info. Here's a 43-page e-book which looks promising:
