I know... my speed sucks...
68 wpm

not fast enough to reply to you first without having 5 other replies show up before mine!!!!
but the 2 finger method seems to work ok for me!

90-110 words per minute

Not too bad:

41 here. I swear it feels like I type faster than that. I use the old "hunt and peck" method that pisses typing teachers off throughout the land. I know I do type a lot faster when I am typing my own words as I am thinking them instead of having to read a story and type it at the same time.

I'll just go sit with the snails now...

Don't feel so bad, I only got 36. Nails get in the way.

68 adjusted, any good?

I was curious


Lot of good it does me with so many "talk to type" options out there these days.

55 wpm...sounds about right to me.

That was fun... especially the first attempt (click thumbnail for bigger pic):

Wow, an adjusted speed of... 0 words per minute!

Apparently I must have missed a word near the start or something, and everything from then on was wrong. But I like their promo bit... Boost Your Typing Speed (of 0) so it's 58 times faster.. to make 58 wpm...

Soooo... 58 x 0 = 58! They win for marketing but major fail for arithmetic. They should be doing marketing for the Fed!

Well anyway as my computer obviously made a mistake ( ) I did the test again with a different text (about tigers), which was actually more technical than the first text:


44 wpm adjusted. Seeing as I only use two fingers, I think I can live with that.

Thanks for the post, OP! S'nF for your efforts.

(Btw your image is so small I can't even read the result of your own test...)
