only 104 WPM second go-round =(

at this rate, in just ten pages or so I'll have negative productivity.

third time.  112 wpm w00t!

120 wpm on this one, a bit lower on the British one I posted on the other thread.

EDIT: 143 on the second try.  I think the British one kinda sucks in comparison since you have to click on it once to start and again to finish, which probably adds a second to your time and screws you up.

Well, have you ever taken typing lessons or do you use the ol' reliable two index fingers when you type?

I took typing class in high school and I learned to type the proper way.  God help me if Qwerty keyboards are ever phased out!

i got 55 wpm with 5 mistakes.

i never learned how to type properly like most people learned in school :(

i type using my pointer and middle fingers, and that's it.

55 wpm is pretty impressive for two-fingered typing.  I can't get above 40 that way.

cloud, as a woman, how high does typing speed rank your dating-mating criteria list?  Try to be honest, if you possibly can.  Lots of women say typing speed doesn't matter to them but their actual choices reveal otherwise.

or is it all about accuracy?
