Keyboarding

Tried 3 keyboarding websites tonight:
typingstudy.com
10-fast-fingers.com
keyhero.com

Typingstudy.com offered a more "classic" style of keyboarding. Going through touch typing. At first it just seemed annoying, but then when I actually looked at what was on the screen (not just trying to type the letters they gave me, but utilizing the pictured keyboard and colored letters to type) it was quite interesting. I can see how this site would really be beneficial to new/young keyboarders.

10-fast-fingers.com is just a speed typing test. You can test and retest to increase your speed. A positive to this site is that is uses the most commonly used English words. So the faster you type these words, then the faster you'll type in general. You can also post to your blog how fast (or not fast) you type. (I'm only 57 wpm)

My favorite of the 3 was keyhero.com. It was both an accuracy test as well as WPM. And it tested your accuracy in 4 categories: bad ordering, wrong case, doublet, other while charting your mistakes on a table. In addition, the program buzzed at you if you typed something incorrectly....which scared me half to death, but also added a bit of fun to it! :)
