    There is so much information about the domain industry, is it possible to speedread?

    There is so much information about the domain industry . I just printed out all the cover stories from DNjournal from 2003 to 2007. That is about 500 word pages. Does anybody know about some books that teaches speedreading? (seriously).
    Thanks for answering my questions everybody

    You can't learn it all by reading. Sure, you can learn a lot of it, tips, tricks, niches, what to look for but in the end it's experience that will teach you the most.

    As for speedreading, I don't think it is as easy as reading a book on it. You need to build up the mental skill and discipline to be able to do it well enough for it to be worth your time and money.

    No doubt. This question, like others you've asked, doesn't at all pertain to the domain business. Google for answers to these.

    Instead of looking at it from a "wow there is so much info here" change the way you are approaching it.

    Perhaps write out a list of questions, and then you can easily find your answers here or on other resources. From there, you will get into the rhythm sorta like the show LOST. Where there are always more questions than answers.

    Don't look for a fast-track course... there is a learning curve you have to take.

    Good advice, find a niche to work to start, you can't do everything at once

    Instead of spending hundreds of hours reading about how much Frank Schilling's house costs and what Rick Schwartz' new Breitling looks like; throw those cover stories away and start spending time buying and selling domains on DNF.

    Yes, those cover stories are indeed great reading, but I think you will benefit more from participating in this game, than reading about the success of others.

    Break-Through Rapid Reading by Peter Kump.

    The downside is in order to follow this book you'll have to give up regular reading for at least two to three months. its all about sacrifice baby

    As above, you can't master this business overnight; I'm still learning now, six years after I started. It's all about learning from your mistakes and gradually building up your knowledge as the days/months/years go on.
