Have you ever just looked at your fingers while you were typing, and just thought "Woah"?

Have you ever just looked at your fingers while you were typing, and just thought "Woah"?
Woah.
Not really...
Actually, yah, I have. Because when you're typing at 120 wpm (only happens when my fingers are warm enough and such), it's just... whoa.
I'm not even sure how I type. If I stop to think about it, I can't type anymore.
I tend not to look down.
Yeah i know what you mean.. its like Data froms Star Trek.
I am typing in the speed of the light so i can't distinguish my fingers at all. I only distinguish my fingers when i am typing with my foot.
>> I am typing in the speed of the light
I didn't know before how one can be *in* a speed. Now I know better, thanks.
>> I only distinguish my fingers when i am typing with my foot
So what you're saying is you can't distinguish between your fingers when you're doing anything but typing with you're foot. How strange.
> I didn't know before how one can be *in* a speed.
I am not so good at my English, but i can communicate at least.
>Now I know better, thanks.
You are welcome

View again my post...
I have never looked at my fingers while I am typing, Ill try it out.
I can only type around 65wpm, from what I recall, its only been two years, since I have learned to type. I hope it will improve over time.
I never have no.
No, but ive thought "damn, im slow"
I've thought, man, I need to learn touch typing.
when i look i screw up, because if i may attention to something i tend to screw up. thats just me though
Sometimes I look at my finger while typing, but I don't say "woah", but I say "They'll become faster", I don't type very fast, but also not very slow... and for me they are fast enough for now!
go to:
www.typingtest.com
to find out your typing speed, if you dont know it.
I took it twice. First time:
90 wpm, 93% accurate
Second time:
91 wpm, 97% accurate
My test:
Duration: 1 Minute
Gross Speed: 135 WPM
Errors: 139 Words
Net Speed : 0 WPM
Accuracy: 0%
how do I get 135 WPM and type 139 incorrect words in one minute?
94WPM, 100% accuracy.
I could have done better, but, um.. I lost 3 fingers in 'nam.
i like typing and talking/listening (and looking) at somebody at the same time... last time i did that she hit me and yelled at me because it freaked her out...
haha, I do that all the time... except sometimes I just look at them and don't listen because I don't want to hear what they have to say.
Yikes, I thought I typed fast but it only said 84 WPM... of course maybe it would help if my nails were short enough that all my fingers could actually touch the keys... Any other girls out there have permanent fingernail marks on their keyboards? :D
My cat's left a few permanent claw marks in my keyboard. :rolleyes:
I suspect any WPM test would not be truly representative if you are typing the same words over and over.
I am sure I would have a higher WPM figure entering code, than random text, and I am also quite sure it depends on what kind of keyboard you are using. I work with a Danish keyboard at home, because my wife can't cope with any other, but to get, for example, a "{" character, or a "[" character, I need to be using the alt key. At work, I have an English keyboard so many of the multi key combinations I need to use at home are easier.
I'm slow
61WPM, 93% accuracy.
Damn gramatical errors. . .
I always forgot to type them.:rolleyes:
anyways I agree with adrianxw, that is only accurate if you are typing rubbish. I can't type very fast when I'm looking at words to type, but if It's something that I am thinking about, then I'm okay.
//ya, that made no sense, o-well
Same here.
I never have learned to type. I've been using computers since I was like 6 so I just remember where the keys are and I press them. I don't really think too much about typing, I just do it. If I try to think about it, I just mess up.
This is the first time I really looked at myself typing and I have to say "Wow" too.
PS: I couldn't take that test because Konqueror is being a $$$$$ about applets, and my Mozilla isn't set up for Java.
>I'm slow
>61WPM, 93% accuracy.
Oh, you're not that slow -- that would've gotten you an A in my high school keyboarding class! (Yes, when I was in high school we didn't have a Word Processing and Spreadsheeting class yet; we had a Keyboarding class with textbooks made for typewriters!) I was thrilled if I could type 50 WPM in high school ... and then I became a CS major :D
Cool.Code:Test name Strategic Alliances with Competitors
Gross Speed 97 WPM
Errors 3 Words
Net Speed 94 WPM
Accuracy 96%
My dad can do a whole 21 WPM (no kidding)
The most I've ever gotten would be 120 WPM, but on average I get about 82.
Yeah I have done that plenty of times I am acutally doing it now lol woooo I love tpying its so fun now I am thinking aobut it and tpying much slower than my potential is, actually no wrong word but i cannot correct it now because I'm really tired and it's's like 6am over here. Oh man.
