Aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer in
waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoetnt tihng is taht the frist

I'd not heard of this research. I read the post really easily! I was aware that people read words as pictures - rather than actually reading the letters then getting the word - but this takes it to another level. Pretty cool! Of course context becomes more important in this version.
