Just curious to know what everyones average typing speed is.. With above 90% accuracy.
 


Typing, about 80-90. Chorded keyboards are where it's at though if you're going to be typing a lot and have time to get over the learning curve.
 
123 WPM is my best on Type Racer but I haven't played that game much or it'd probably be better
 
i normally do about 90wpm with 10% accuracy but I could do 80wpm at 3%...my in house content writer is a graduate student that also writes term papers for profit and does 140+

As of 2005, Barbara Blackburn, of Salem, Oregon, is the fastest English language typist in the world, according to The Guinness Book of World Records. Using the Dvorak Simplified Keyboard, she has maintained 150 words per minute for 50 min, 170 words per minute for shorter periods and has been clocked at a peak speed of 212 words per minute. Blackburn, who failed her typing class in high school, first encountered the Dvorak keyboard in 1938, quickly learned to achieve very high speeds, and occasionally toured giving speed-typing demonstrations during her secretarial career.[1]

About 75wpm at 95%+. Should get a boost though with a new arrangement. Jacked my keyboard angle up a couple of days ago and it feels faster. Checking new speed with radar gun.

Need to see what the latest version of Dragon Naturally Speaking can do for me.
