Typing Test
How fast do you type?
Take the Speedtest
I could not get the result HTML cod e to show up correctly in my blog but I type 58 WPM.
So see how quick I can post a blog entry -- in mere seconds! WOW.
I filed this under Hobbies because that is what blogging is to me. LOL
Another fun typing skill/improvement ga me is Typer Shark at PopCap Games.
Update:
Just found this fun typing race with VWs. You can practice yourself or you can race with other people. Most amusing!
TypeRacer -- (all I can think of is that old Speed Racer theme song/tune, "Here he comes here comes TypeRacer.")

My goodness -- well I am getting old and slowing down!
I type pretty fast compared to everyone else around here. They marvel at my fine tuned skill. LOL

I probably wouldn't have been as quick if the test included numbers and punctuation ;)

Blogging is a HOBBY? (Holds chest and breaths shallowly and quickly) I thought it was life?

Mine was 61 wpm. Not sure if that is bad or good. I do not type with the correct technique, but do well enough to get the job done as far as I'm concerned.
Thanks for the interesting link!

LOL -- yes, I have to call it that for the sake of my children. Truly, it is really an addiction but I am in denial.

As long as you get the job done -- fine!
Sad to say, I can be typing and talking at the same time while looking at my children who seem to interupt me an awful lot. I think they think I love the computer more than them at times. LOL
But then again, they are always on their GameBoys or watching TV.

Upped my record to 77. I am finding it a little difficult to believe that rosietulips can get 93. ::jealous gritting of teeth::
