Tune Up Your Brain in Seven Minutes

I saw an ad on TV for this site advertising something called eyeQ that purports to speed up your reading speed and comprehension.

A seven minute run through demo is offered and it was pretty interesting. The pretest set me at 436 wpm which I thought was pretty decent. After five minutes of kind of tiring little short exercises my word per minute count jumped to 720! A 65% increase in seven minutes. Not bad at all. I wonder what would happen if I did the test again?

I wonder what it would do for someone like my mom, who can devour books like bon-bons?
