    I'm averaging about 85wpm... but I think we've already had a thread like this before. :eek:

    And learn how to crop your screenshot, man. That white space is unnecessary. :grin:

    I used to be around 100-110. Now it's dipped to about 90-100 (accurately, lol).

    I blame the recession and Google.

    I never actually learned to type properly... I basically only type with my left and right index fingers. Even so, the last time I checked my typing speed I actually managed 40 wpm... surprising for only using one finger on each hand, eh?

    118 wpm on my first run and they made me do the "re-test" to make sure I wasn't a bot. This is on a laptop chiclet keyboard, too. I've peaked at 140+ wpm before.

    138 was the last fastest one I had...although I've hit 150 a handful of times here and there on other tests.

    thats all fine and good for now, but what the hell are you going to do after the apocalypse? you wont have your precious "voice commander" and your typing skillz will be weak, thus making you vulnerable to people who still know how to type.

    survival of the fittest yo.
