Not too bad, eh?

I figure, this isn't bad, considering that I never took a typing class. I get a cookie, yes? :D

And just for the record, I only did it once. I don't have the time or patience to keep typing random words over and over again to improve my score.

74 on the first try though I stumbled over a couple of words. Commenting to thank you for the link; I've never actually typed properly on the keyboard before (ie, with the right fingers to the right keys or anything like that) and nooooow I can semi-figure out how fast I type. *googles industry averages*

Apparently 40 wpm is the basic minimum standard? :|

Meh. Well, I'm not a professional secretary, so I figure anything over 60 words is good enough.

Besides, what I lack in raw speed, I make up in excellent comprehension of English grammar and the general use of the language. I don't type so slowly that it hinders my ability to work and to write, so that's good enough for me. :)

Over 60's pretty speedy, apparently. I figure it's probably all that chatting for me, lol.

I highly doubt the 70s range is lacking in raw speed, dear. :P

*shrugs* As long as I can keep up in a chat.

Actually, I'll be using the breakroom computer at work, and people will comment about how fast I type. I never really noticed. *shrugs*

Heh. No mistakes, at least. I still can't type without looking at the keyboard. :-P

Someday, you'll be great and famous, and you'll have a secretary who takes diction.

Hmm. I tried another one a few months back that said my typing speed was 110 or something. But I suspect on this keyboard, it would be more like 30 wpm. It's fucking curved and I have to stare at it to find each individual key. GRRR

DAMN that's fast!

which shows:
1) random words are hard
2) There was a REASON I was always the worst one in class
3) I need to trim my nails again

:P

btw, this is my second try because I accidentally closed the first one but it my result was actually worse compared to my first try (which gave 61). :DDDD

[mijan.livejournal.com]

1. Yep.
2. I didn't even take typing class in high school, but I was the slowest typist in Computer Lit.
3. ROFLMAO.

[grey-hunter.livejournal.com]

Well, it's not like I could think faster than I can type. :P
