I'm a fast typer but if you asked me to use all my fingers I'd be lost. LOL
God Bless, Jimmy

I'm a fairly fast typer, but I do sometimes make speeling mistakes if I rush.

When I got the Fill Me In badge in 52 seconds, I'd say that's a good example of a fast typer, especially with those difficult questions! I was elated!

I am a relatively slow typer resulting in some poor efforts on FT and thus the inability to get cettain badges.

I'm fast, but I HATE the QWERTY keyboard layout. Most of what I regularly use is on the left or awkwardly located.

If I try and type fast I usually make mistakes so I dont type fast as it will just cost me points in the long term, by the time I go back and correct my mistakes lol.

I grew up before computers and began typing on a manual typewriter! After that, today's keyboards are quick and easy.

I was trained as a touch typist back in the days of manual typewriters so I am fairly fast. I doubt if I could use a manual keyboard now, the pressure you used to have to exert on those keys compared to electric typewriters and now computer keyboards is immense.

I am average because I only use one hand.

Same as Christap. Did you also have an apron to hide the keys? Those were the days lol

"Slower than you could ever imagine."
Yep, that's about right. LOL - I've used the computer about half of my life and I still look for letters on the keyboard... plus I don't even know what some of the keys are for. I'm an average typer I guess, and as I've just noticed I use both hands for typing. Considering my experience, there is room for development :)

i guess I'd rate myself as fairly fast. I had a typing class in high school (way back then!) and I've always had some typing to do so I remember where the keys are. It's a lot easier with a computer keyboard than a typewriter.

I'm a reasonably fast typist too. Like Christinap and Playmate I learned to touch type on an old manual typewriter. All of the keys were covered in plastic colour push-on tops. Four different colours for the 4 fingers and the thumb was used for the spacebar.
Each finger had a different colour cap. Now I can type well but if I look at the keyboard whilst I'm typing I will make loads of mistakes. It was a clever, simple way to learn to type. And yes, to go from typing on a manual machine to a computer keyboard is so much easier and less stressful on the hands/wrists.

I'm pretty fast, but I make a lot of mistakes.

Playmate - yes we had the keys covered with an apron so you couldn't see them, and we used to have to type to music so that we had a good even rhythm as well. My very first job we used to have speed tests once a month and you were expected to type at least 50wpm with absolutely no mistakes. If you made a mistake it was 5wpm deducted for each error.

I type fast, even though I only use one finger per hand for the letters. I use the right hand thumb to tap the space bar, and the index fingers for things like shift, tab etc.
