I was sceptic but I tried, measured, and arrived to the conclusion. First, I set a timer to 60 seconds and read some text. I managed to read seventeen lines. Then, I used my finger to guide my eyes the same way kids do when they learn reading. It turned out that I was able to read lines of text. By simply using my finger. Impressive.

This is interesting. Here’s the averages of three independent trials I just carried out against same-formatted text:
1. Reading without the pointer: 1m 16s 420ms
2. Reading with the help of the pointer: 0m 43s 80 ms
I wonder what research is available, if any, to explain the observations above (or similar ones)
