Lately, we have been testing our mini golf skills, our vocabulary skills, our homonym skills. I found another test for you to try. You can take a one minute wpm skill test.

All this blogging must have improved my words per minute. Not a bad skill to have in the event of a job loss.
When this website first began, they offered you plenty for free. I used it to hone my skills. Not sure how much you get if you download it now. It is a very good program, especially for beginners.

Good God. I have lost about 30 WPM. I only ended up at 38WPM
HA! Got you beat there Toad. I did 74 wpm with a 94% accuracy. How the heck did that happen?
Forgetaboutit...I really suck at typing. About a word a minute, seriously...All I use is one finger.
Mary 74 Holy Mackerel. That's really smokin. Mr. Kral didn't hit me on the knuckles enough.
I think it was the large cup of coffee I had right before I did it.
Net Speed: 22 WPM
(words/minute)
Accuracy: 70%
Gross Speed: 31 WPM
(words/minute)
I do not type well, especially under duress. I can't see very well, either, so I'm not too ashamed.
74 is smoking! I was happy hovering in the 60's. I think I have test anxiety.
It was the coffee. The second time it was a lot slower. I did the Wizard of Oz one. Strange.
I'm hanging out in the low sixties wpm with around 90-95% accuracy.. pretty fun.. although I liked the one I took a few days ago that said I was in teh 70s somewhere..
It's a good skill. My mom has accredited getting the jobs above minimum wage (even though she was a stay at home mom with very little job experience) because she could type 80 wpm.
