A New App to Read your First Harry Potter Book - in ONE HOUR

Does that sound unrealistic? Well, there is an app in the market SPRITZ which would help you read books much faster than anything else.

So what makes the app so fast? Instead of showing you the lines of a book, it shows you one word at a time (word after word displayed at the same spot) which helps increase our speed tremendously.

The app lets you set the speed between 250-1000 words a minute, though you might find it difficult to comprehend at higher speeds it is still much faster than the conventional ways.

There are some similar apps in the market but Spritz says it is better than others because it shows one letter in RED and this acts a point of focus for eyes.

Here is the link to SPRITZ.

Fantastic Beasts on my WALL

What I did yesterday, I think was my week's 'creative best', yes, really!

I had this copy of the book, "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them", it was kind of a picture book (meant for kids under the age of 10), I bought it a while back since my obsession with everything Harry Potter is always on a boiling point. I tore off the covers (on finding that there wasn't much to read) and stuck it onto my Pin-Board and that too quite neatly!

Well, it is looking cool, here's a picture!
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them ..on my wall!

    Car Mania

    There is one thing in the Harry Potter series which bugs me really, its the Weasley's Ford Anglia in the second book, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets! I have been thinking about it for a couple of days now, how exactly did it come to Harry and Ron when they were fighting for their dear life against Aragog's family. If you find the answer then please let me know.

    Thinking about Ford Anglia, I browsed some car websites and came across Shop4UsedCars because seriously being a student I don't have a big stash of cash to spend otherwise. Surprisingly, its a great website! You would find a car of your liking here, take my word. It has this complete collection of cars to choose from, you name it and they have it, plus, they have more locations than any other dealer.

    The prices seem to be reasonable and these guys are trustable. My favorite is a Jeep Wrangler, completely freaky! The best thing about this website, they have categorised the cars for "Under $10,000" which is great (atleast for students like myself). You can narrow down your search by price, make, model, style, etc.

    Shop4UsedCars, Salt Lake City, UT, seems to offer the best ramge of automobiles, specially so because these people have been in this business for over a 75 years now! Thats saying something! They have their stores at 39 locations with 34 new car franchises, 3 used car stores and 2 collision repair stores.

    So, if you are planning of buying a four wheel ride for yourself please browse what Shop4UsedCars has to offer to you or you can visit the site just for casual surfing, it serves both purposes.

    Happy riding!
