WPM

[LunarWeaver]

I got 117, two mistakes.

[RedWiz]

69, 1 mistake

[Araciel]

I heard the QWERTY keyboard was designed to slow typists down so that they wouldn't jam up typewriters back in the day... odd how now we can't change it to a quicker layout because it's standardized.

What do you mean "can't"? It's very easy to do, ara

1) download key layout Introducing the Dvorak Keyboard -- Switch Your Computer
2) pop your keyboard buttons out and replace them!
3) learn how to type again

[scrumpleberry]

Mine is because I make a lot of mistakes. I made one grevious error just typing that sentence, and another typing that little clause, and 3 more typing that little part!

[Jessweeee♪]

That first link said 79WPM, and the second one said 83 :</>D!

...but what if you're using a laptop D:

[The Man]

At least seventy without many errors. I can't be arsed to try that site to find out something I already know; I've been typing at this speed since I was like seven. I learned to type without being able to look at my fingers and never really bothered using home row or anything like that, so when they taught typing in grade school I was always really frustrated.

I should learn Dvorak one of these days.

Gah, I know! They made me take it 3-6th grade, and then again in 8th grade! They make you start over every time and it was so annoying >.<

[rubah]

wow, that's tough, jesse.

i guess if you were using a laptop, you might not want to pop out your keys, but you could still just not look at them!

[Momiji]

Typing in my regular style (correcting as I go):
Your speed was: 66wpm.

Congratulations! You made no mistakes, practice does make perfect.

Yes, that is partly true. I do wonder how the keys on the typewriter are connected though because I always found it surprising that the "e" and "r" keys are right next to each other.

[Monkey4Soul]

I feel... So disappointed... My WPM is a seemingly paltry 45 with 90% accuracy.

[rubah]

That's pretty good for only having one arm, Monkey4Soul

[Peegee]

I love qwerty and I'm never going back. I don't care if I can type faster, because I'll have to reassign all of the stupid keys in video games and I'm old and crotchety

I should be able to type above 70 wpm but I can't be bothered to find out. It's not higher than 90-100 for sure though.

[Gwawr]

God, I'm appauling at typing. Probably 5.
