I'm a fantastic typer, I use all my fingers with great dexterity. I took a typing course in high school. I also took a ''Brag About your Typing Skills'' course.
I get it off my mom, she was a secretary, types about 1,945,475 words per minute.

haha I'm the same way man I got the two finger action going too, but I'm actually pretty fast with just two fingers. It's around 50+ a minute for me I think.
But you gotta love those typing errors you are prown to get.

we were forced to take typing back in like grade 8....... i fucking hated it
i could'nt type, i got a really low mark (which was uncommon for me at the time)
but now that i have an unhealthy addiction to the internet... my typing skill have never been better!

He would grade our speeds with minute drills, and I've -quietly- type more words on after the minute was up, increase my total.
I am badass, dude. Badass.
And I still am.

Don't bash the two finger typing, if your fast with two fingers(like me) then stick with it. Oh and you better believe I don't look at the screen when I'm typing, boo ya go me!

lol no no no, you gotta look at the keyboard when typing with two fingers, it's an absolute MUST i say.
lol Ophecks, I did the exact same thing as you. Thxfully my teacher wasn't such a bish to cover up the keyboard, so you better believe I was looking at it the majority of the time.

I type with 2 or three fingers, but I type extremely well with those... I have gotten up to 70 or 80 words a minutes, and I'm probably faster now as that was years ago... I type without looking at the keyboard, and sometimes not even at the screen and can still correct mistakes I made just by feel...

yeah, I tried learning the right way to type, but I figured, what's the point? I can already type good with a couple fingers, and fast, so why go through the trouble to learn how to type "right"...

i am a four finger typer and can type about as fast as everyone else.
but i look at the keyb while i type, so i have lotsa typos.
BUT you tend to notice when you hit the wrong key, or two at a time....
doesnt stop me from fuckgin up my typing tho.
i even have signature typos. eg liek and fuckgin or fuckign
i swear i never do them on purpose!

Hunt and peck huh? I type with both hands, I didnt think it was worth learning until I started coding, then I realized it pays off big time.
