YES! I'm so sorry, but I have to brag. I've touch typed 111 words per minute (wpm)touch typing! My friend and I both accomplished this with a typing program at our school. God knows we might have done better because that is the maximum it can measure, I think. No mistakes, either. This is a reason why I prefer typing to the long way. Has anyone else here ever measured their wpm (and gotten better than 111)?
I just love writing, and typing comes easily for me.

Who needs friends when you've just bought a brand new pen?
I touch type at about 100-120 wpm depending on how much I know what I'm talking about.
I don't need a keyboard in front of me to type what I want to type. I can gauge when I make mistakes and hit the backspace button apropriately. (assuming that neither the screen, or backspace button is there, which they aren't in this scenario.)
http://www.calculatorcat.com/typing_test/ This is a nice little tool for calculating how fast you can type.
As far as I can tell, it gauges up to 1560 wpm. (Using the ctrl+v function yeilded this result.)

I never really had a touch type test thing or what ever, but I can still touch type. But I am pretty slow. 40 - 50 wph. Man that's slow. *feels ashamed*
I usually type about 120 when I know what I'm writing. Otherwise I'm around 100wpm.
When I was in a typing class with my friend, we used to have competitions to see how fast we could type. I got up to like 130wpm, lol. It was hilarious though, 'cuz we had both memorized the sentences and we'd do it over and over.

I never look at the keyboard, maybe that's why people think I can't spell. I just took at typing test...104 words per min, my fingers are flying....
but normally probably around 80-90.
You couldn't parallel park if your life depended on it, so it's unfortunate that, due to the alien invaders' strange emphasis on motorist competence, that's exactly what it comes down to.
Giving money and power to government is like giving whiskey and car keys to teenage boys.
"Sometimes we see a cloud that's dragonish,
A vapour sometimes like a bear or lion,
A towered citadel, a pendant rock,
A forked mountain, or blue promontory,
With trees upon't that nod unto the world,And mock our eyes with air.."
This planet has - or rather had - a problem, which was this: most of the people living on it were unhappy for pretty much all of the time. Many solutions were suggested for this problem, but most of these were largely concerned with the movement of small green pieces of paper, which was odd because on the whole it wasn't the small green pieces of paper that were unhappy. — Douglas Adams, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
