How fast can you type?

80 words

Speedtest

I found this typing speed test during lunch today. I take my typing speed for granted most times, but have learned that I type faster when I know what I want to type, such as when I'm composing an email or a story. Typing a list of random words is slower unless you read ahead as you're typing. My first couple of tries at the speed test were less than stellar, but after I started reading the upcoming words as my fingers were finishing the current word, my performance improved by 8-10%. I often joke that I can type 80 words per minute but can't read my own handwriting. Sad but true.
