How fast can you type?

http://www.typingtest.com/

I just did the 1 minute Tigers one and got 81wpm with 2 errors for a 79wpm final score.

I know I can do better, a few years ago I was in the 90s.
 
EEk... I'm only at 48 words per minute because I made 5 mistakes. That being said, I actually type better in french...
 
My score was 58 with 0 errors. I know I can do better too - like if I retake it I would probably get a better score each time. 90wpm would be amazing!
 
I do horrible on those tests. I always bone it, but in actuality am much faster with better accuracy.
 
I am a horrible typist. I only managed 34 wpm. I have to look at my hands too much, and I've often looked up at the screen to find my caps lock was on or I was typing complete gibberish because I hadn't realized I was off a key! LOL I also always have my tablet pen in my hand while I'm typing, so I tried the test with and without the pen. I was actually faster with it, but I made more mistakes, so it came out the same. LOL

As a side note, I cut my nails yesterday, and it feels REALLY weird to type today. :giggle
 
Oh poo! I'm at 81wpm (had 4 errors). That's a great deal slower than when I first started working--I used to be about 91 wpm. :/
 
100 wpm after the error adjustment. :) that was fun. I always liked typing games. But I am so bad at the numbers and symbols, especially on the German keyboard!
 
Wow... my skills have dissipated. I used to type over 100, and now I'm at 80 with 0 errors. Bah.
 
woah... 63 wpm here... i am def rusty. i can type chatter much, much faster.

Depends on the text for me... I did the instructions text and faired better at a 75 wpm.

You girls are pretty fast... I only got 64 wpm after my errors.
 
I feel like I can type faster than my score! LOL! It's hard to read and type at the same time. I got a 74 wpm with 2 errors for a 72.
 
I was a bit surprised - 69 with 1 error. I used to type closer to 100. I guess everything slows down as you get older! :)
 
I got 57wpm with no errors. I think since teaching myself to touch type my speed has always been right around the 60 wpm mark.
 
59 with 2 errors. OMG! I used to type at 68+ with no errors. Dang it....I hate getting old! LOL
 
89 for me, but I totally screwed it up that time. I'm a transcriptionist and type all the time - I know I'm faster than that LOL.
