Interactive Metronome

http://www.interactivemetronome.com

This weird little commercial endeavor piqued my interest recently, after a somewhat internet-dry period (thus no posts -- i can't believe it has been several weeks!)  Anyway, this site claims that improving a person's sense of timing can improve everything from attention and academic performance to sports performance. Somehow I agree,  though what I am not convinced of is the efficacy of their training program, which involves hand and foot sensors, and a computer trainer attempting to teach people to get with the rhythm. I'm sure many people with ADD, for example, would do wonderfully at this because they have a musical sense, but one that expresses itself through hyperfocus (other aspects of life show no rhythm then). Anyways, judge for yourself, as usual.
