Try An Online Typing Test To Test Your Typing Speed

| Comments (0)

typewriter-istockphoto.jpg According to a couple of online typing tests I tried, I type in the 100 words per minute range. (That's with no errors.)

When I used to work in administrative jobs, my typing speed was "really good" (according to my employers). I went from 60 wpm to 80 wpm in no time from all the time spent at the computer. Now, after all these years of being self-employed as a full-time writer and editor, I'm at 100 wpm.

That's pretty good, but still not great. If you try out your own typing speed at the following online typing sites, you'll see that the fastest typists tend to type in the 120-150 range.

Try 'em out... they're FUN!

FreeRice: Play This Game & Help End World Hunger!

| Comments (1)

Here's another fun online game. But this one has a purpose: To help end world hunger.

FreeRice has a custom database containing thousands of words at varying degrees of difficulty ... FreeRice automatically adjusts to your level of vocabulary. It starts by giving you words at different levels of difficulty and then, based on how you do, assigns you an approximate starting level. You then determine a more exact level for yourself as you play. When you get a word wrong, you go to an easier level. When you get three words in a row right, you go to a harder level. This one-to-three ratio is best for keeping you at the 'outer fringe' of your vocabulary, where learning can take place."

There are 50 different levels, but it's supposedly quite rare for anyone to make it past level 48.
