do you type with all 10 fingers?

[urameatball]

<< 65 wpm using the right hand alone >>

if it's true, then I'm really impressed.


anyway, 9 fingers here. left thumb needs to be left alone
I knew a person in my High school that typed 310wpm. I was like DAYAMMM>.. I couldn't even read that fast, let alone type that fast. But I think her score was only based on normal keys without the full keyboard.

I only do typing tests with the full keyboard and range around 65-85wpm depending on the test.

[optimistic]

Don't use my right thumb!

 

[ArMs]

the only excuse for not typing with 10 fingers is not having 10 fingers.

I'm the goofy one here: I touch-type using all fingers except the right thumb!!! My left thumb does all the space bar duties. Damn, now that I am concious about it, I can't type either!! ;0

I'm guessing I do about 40~50 WPM. Funny thing is I usually type faster if I am not looking at the monitor. I've always thought it's harder to type and read what you are typing at the same time. Everyone who can touch type should try typing with their eyes closed. You've be surprised.

I do in fact use all 10 fingers, however, I have a bad habit, in that I have to look at them when I type.
But its still faster than 2 finger hunt and peck style

[Chrishuff1]

I can type with all 10 fingers and even my toes!

I average 73 WPM.

 

[LittlePrincess]

I would say I use 10 most of the time...

 

[tigerbait]

10 for me.

 

[Darein]

Generally its more like 8, but I cheat and look at the keyboard.

 

[RaDragon]

uh huh... all 10 fingers.

 

[KBTibbs]

I just kinda flop my hands all over the keyboard...like a fish out of water. Any words that result are pure chance.

 

[whitelight]

interesting... sometimes i just use my right thumb to hit the space bar, sometimes just my left, and sometimes they hit the space bar simultaneously. just realized that. =)

 

[eakers]

all ten like a big girl
i know mosta the numbers and some of hte shift keys there.

*kat. <-- got the * and the <-- down pat without looking now.

 

[hzl eyed grl]

I use 8 fingers and my right thumb.

 

[bigredguy]

hmm i wonder how many i type with. i think that was four or five but i am not sure

 

[Gl4di4tor]

10.

 

[Clinotus]

All 10, and when I'm typing out a F-U or I'm pissed off, I tap my free subconsciously, so I think I hold the record at using all 20 digits!

 

[GiLtY]

as im typing now....... yap, all ten fingers!

 

[Omegachi]

nope

 

[ProviaFan]

I use 9 out of 10, since my right thumb is the one that hits the space bar, and the left one just sticks out uselessly

 

[Olias]

8 fingers, 2 thumbs and sometimes I head bang.

 

[Wedesdo]

weirdish 10 finger configuration for me too... w/o looking, of course

 

[zimu]

i only use 9 fingers- i don't use the thumb of my left hand... it feels weird hitting the space with it!!
