Another typing test, I’m faster than you!
OK, so I may not be as fast as some of the UNEASY readers, but I can never resist trying typing tests whenever one comes my way. I know there are some peckers out there – you know, people who peck away at the keys one finger (one key) at a time. I also know there are typists out there that could probably touch type on two different keyboards on the table with each hand. Note that once you place your cursor in the text area, the timer begins.
I clocked in at at 90 wpm and 420 cpm. What are you? Try it out for yourself and report back with the result. Remember, it’s not how fast you type, but how many errors aren’t registered.

93.41 wpm, 423.75 cpm. and that’s with two small errors.
44 wpm and 408 cpm…with 7 mistakes….eh…im fast enough for me…
Wow! Your typing speed (with 3 mistakes) is:
125.47 wpm
532.5 cpm
That was first attempt. I’ll try a few more times and see how it goes. I can typically hit more than 140 wpm with no mistakes. That is what happens when you went to a private school, and they made you do an hour of type training on a weekly basis starting in 2nd grade.
Wow, I hit 125 wpm and 542 cpm. But I think the test is really way too short to be accurate. Give me more text to write and I inevitably type slower because I make more errors that I need to go back and fix.
121.02 wpm / 513.6 cpm with 1 mistake.
I posted the picture to my tumblelog as proof :)
meh, I apparently suck
121 with zero errors
thank you dvorak keyboard

My best on my 12 inch powerbook was 75 (usually around 60), I tried it on a desktop and got over 100 the first try. My guess is that people with 120+ wpm are doing it on a desktop keyboard. Ill keep this in mind next time I need to do some programming:)
no chad…i suck…the guy on a powerbook did almost twice as better as me…but i just dont care…
Wow! Your typing speed (with 2 mistakes) is:
100.53 wpm
434 cpm
meh whatev…
“Wow! Your typing speed (with 0 mistakes) is:

Also on a dvorak keyboard layout here.
darn I was coming to comment-brag but some of you folks smoked me :)
Wow! Your typing speed (with 2 mistakes) is:
98.48 wpm
398.71 cpm
So…normally I score 70wpm….I got 98wpm on my first try with 6 mistakes….
I think this one is a little high. And everyone else’s sounds higher then normal as well.
the test with “that that” always screws me up
80.78 with 3 mistakes..
not bad for an 18 year old considering i’ve had no formal training and i’m the fastest in my family =P
81.6 wpm 350.27cpm
i really like macbook keyboards, flat keys with almost no travel.
47wpm, i guess its cause i just switched to dvorak
127.5 wpm
510cpm
woot.
I have a screenshot…
If you want to be serious about typing fast, you should consider switching to Colemak – http://www.colemak.com
It took me 3 weeks to regain my QWERTY-speed, and now I type around 40% faster with Colemak than QWERTY
I’m actually trying Colemak right now, but not necessarily for speed but rather to distribute typing stress and create a mental challange.
I’m proud seeing as most keys on my keyboard are loose
