Like some of you, I go through bursts of reading voraciously fast and then slower periods where I just enjoy a good (or not so good book currently) before my interest peaks in something again and... Bam! I'm off like a road runner.
Question: Is there some online way to test your reading speed? I've always been curious how fast I actually read. I was stunned when I went in for an application and they put me on a professional typing speed program: 135 words per minute with 95% accuracy. I wasn't sure if that was good enough for the job and told the woman so when she came back, she just stared at me. Now I feel annoyed since most people think I'm joking when I give those numbers.
