Typing

[JellyWorld]

I still type with two fingers , but somehow I can still get 60wpm with them. How many of you still can't touch type? Note: If you use, say, three or four fingers, but not the full set then just select Yes anyway.

Edit: Oh crap wrong forum move this please

 

[JellyWorld]

Holy crap how did three threads appear?

 

[Pi Mu Rho]

and how did you post it on the wrong forum entirely?

I don't know either

 

[xLostx]

that's sad. typing with only two fingers would drive me crazy

 

[The DemonWithin]

Heheh for some reason I type with 4-6 fingers, my index and middle finger, then sometimes either ring finger. And my max is also 60wmp. yay! go incorrect typing!

 

[Fuse Kazuki]

I type with 4-3 fingers.

 

[mortiz]

I type with both hands generally. (not fingers, hands, I ham at the keyboard and see what comes out)

 

[Harryz]

Where the hell is psychokinetics option? Pfffftt, flawed poll.

and see what comes out)

Don't we all.

 

[joule]

I type with both hands and all fingers.

My thumbs are for the spacebar. My left and right little fingers are for shift mainly. I guess I can say I use all my fingers, because I'm not a noob. Also, selecting yes for 4 fingers when the question asks "Do you type with two fingers?" is just dumb.

I've no idea how you can type with 2 fingers. I doubt you can get 60 WPM. Do this test then take a screenshot and upload it to www.imageshack.us

Ok I lied it was 58wpm.

 

[EC]

I got 79 WPM, both net and gross, on that website.

 

[StardogChampion]

What fingers do you use, your two pointing fingers on each hand?

 

[JellyWorld]

Holy crap i got 76 Gross wpm but 26 net cuz I missed out one word near the start hehe.

 

[JellyWorld]

What fingers do you use, your two pointing fingers on each hand?

Yes, sometimes the middle fingers but not as often as the two pointing fingers. 90% of the time it's the two pointing fingers.

 

[superjuanchango]

I type with random fingers, mainly two but every so often I use other fingers. It is very inefficient but I do type quite fast.

 

[StardogChampion]

Your hands must move around insanely fast, people must think your spazzing out and having a fit...

 

[Prince of China]

I use eight fingers and one thumb.

 

[Alix Mcdean]

I'm a 10 finger guy myself. I can type on average 290-330 WPM.

Everyone thinks my fingers are going to light on fire when I type infront of them.

[StardogChampion]

I was just watching the news and they had an interview with Ian Rankin (author) talking about the G8 marches. It cut to a clip of him typing on his laptop and he was typing with 2 fingers, with his wrists not even resting on anything.

Damn weirdos

290-330 WPM?! That's insanely fast....

I use all my fingers, but sometimes I don't use the "right" fingers on the right keys. I've never used the shift key for my right hand; always just used the left shift. In fact, I usually just leave my left pinky finger on the shift bar and type "a" with my ring finger. I think I only use my right-hand thumb for spacebar. I'm also so used to using the numpad that even if I'm just typing one number, I'll move my entire right hand over to the numpad.

I only get maybe 70 to 80 WPM on those typing tests.

 

[TheSomeone]

I type using the standard position. Right fingers on asdf, left on SPACE jkl;
I type up 80-100 wpm.

My friend is like that. I can't stand being next to him during in-class essays. It's like a storm BRALALALALRALBRLARLARLA.

 

[CyberPitz]

I use all of em.

 

[SimonomiS]

Middle three on both hands. Except one thumb for the spacebar. I have weak pinkies.

Surprised no-one said one-handed yet...

 

[Some_God]

Yes, but I'm very fast. Does using the thumb for pushing the space button count?

 

[Vigilante]

I type with all of teh fingers.

 

[Ikerous]

I use all my fingers and get about 90 wpm

[gh0st]

[Lucid]

I usually type with one hand... All fingers on it... Don't care how fast I type, as long as it gets typed.
...Don't get any dirty ideas from that.

[Foxtrot]

I type with mainly two fingers, but I use the other ones for a couple keys, I can type up to 80 WPM but average 65, it really pissed off my keyboarding teacher that I was the fastest typer in the class, and had the worst form.
Oh and about the fastest WPM, my friends mom can type at 250 WPM.

 

[Hazar]

I type properly... thanks to the ex-typewriter class teacher at our school who was, well, I'd rather not say

 

[xzeox]

I only type properly because of school...sadly.

 

[Pesmerga]

Done.

 

[Ames]

Type. Type. Type. With as many fingers as I want.

 

[Ikerous]

Perhaps if we all bought a five hundred dollar keyboard, we'd type faster
