I got a kick out of this and was bored so I gave it a try a couple times. I hit 68 words a minute twice and 74 once. I was pretty impressed with myself. lol

My previous job was relaying phone conversations for people who are deaf or hard of hearing. In a call center of 150+ employees, I was number one in typing speed.

I began that job with roughly around 90 WPM

After a few months on the job.....roughly around 120 WPM on a good day. We got tested every couple of months.

Scored 108 whoot! Typed five words wrong. (I still type at my current job).

316 points, so you achieved position 8061 of 91527 on the ranking list

You type 465 characters per minute
You have 81 correct words and
you have 6 wrong words

81 WPM

i duno if that is even bad or good i just know taht was fun,...please continue to search and find wonderfully exciting things to do like that, Skip, so i can fill my time at work with useful activities like speed typing!

That is a cool site. I am adding this to my small collection. If you go to typeracer.com you can racer against others as well. As you go in it you will race against others who type about the same speed as you do. I found the link from the kim kommando show.

Only downside is if you mispell a word you have to correct it before going on. The more you do the more it averages your speed. Check it out.

sorry scott, my charts here show that you are rated at "mouth breather" right in between "caveman" and "stoner hippie" lol, i think anything above 60 wpm is pretty good, i mean, thats at least one word per second, but remember, progression is the key haha...

Took it twice. The first time, I found myself going back and correcting things and at one point found that I was a word ahead of the program. The second time I corrected two words. 103 WPM.
