Konfucius Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 I'm also touch typing (except for some of the numbers) with all 10 fingers, from time to time I need a little backspace, but not every few words like I used to a about 2 or 3 years ago.

Hellfire Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 I can type pretty well, and I don't even need to look at the keyboard. Yay for me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr_Odwin Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 I took one of the tests that Shorty gave, with a stupidly hard paragraph and it ended up as about 40 wpm after discarding the 10 words I got wrong. I don't touch type at all, which is really bad of me, and I generally only use a couple of fingers. You lot put me to shame. I'll work on it.

jakeee Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 I use all of my fingers to type excluding the left thumb. I never look at my keyboard. It's slow and useless. My typing speed sucks though. If I try to type fast I make a lot of mistakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Letty Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 I can type alright, but not when people are watching me, becasue I get nervous and make mistakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katie Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 I did a couple of those tests, I got 84WPM on Shorty's and 76WPM on Eevils. I should really use the shift key for caps rather than capslock but I can't help it anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rizz Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 I can touch type okay, I been typing for most of my life but I never really tried touch typing until recently, and its not something I do a lot. I prefer to look at the keyboard, just so I can type really fast and be sure what keys i'm going to hit. I don't type my fastest often, mainly in ICT classes when i've thought of a whole scentance I sometimes just speed up without thinking much about it.

Sonic238 Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 Gross Words Per Minute (GWPM): 92 Net Words Per Minute (NWPM): 91 First try without reading the text before typing. I impressed myself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dieter Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 I touch type using dvorak and rarely look down, because the keys are all in the wrong places anyway. I tried the test twice, first time my GWPM was 73 and my NWPM was 72, second my GWPM was 103 and my NWMP was 101. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
