Were could we test our typing speed at?2ndWonder
There's a bunch of free places where you can find tests that tell you your speed. Just put free typing tests in Google to see what you get.

I get 70 pretty easily. If I tried hard enough, I could probably get slightly over 80.

I've taken countless typing tests over the years, and my average is around 120 WPM. However, I've typed as quickly as 160 WPM. My accuracy is alright, but I almost type too fast sometimes. :P

Typing is basically my only skill, so I try to stay on top of it! :D

If I had to look at my keyboard while I typed, then my average would be way slower than what it is.

So to answer your question: Yes. Been able to do so since 7th grade or so.

I don't think I can type this fast. I'm not always on the computer, as a reason why.

I hadn't tested my typing speed in a while, so I found a free test. I got 58 wpm, so I'm guessing I average 50-60.

Hell yeah, I type most of my posts without looking at the keys. :P

My GWAM has gone from about 60 to 75 without home row, and with home row it went from 30 to 40-45. :o
