Read faster, can you?

Many of my friends read, be it novels, technical documents, research papers, whatever. The 6 tips mentioned in this article, "Double Your Reading Rate" by Scott H. Young might help you to improve your reading skills. Here I jot down the points for my own reference, please refer to his article for more detailed explanation on each point.

1. Remember, Reading is Not Linear
2. Stop Subvocalizing
3. Practice Reading
4. Use a Pointer
5. Eliminate Distractions

I especially like the idea of "Stop Subvocalizing".
