Check typing speed

If you have a couple of minutes to spare and want to check your typing speed, head off to the Speedtest at 10-Fast-fingers.com. The service is free and shows you one sentence at a time which needs to be typed in the blank field. The stopwatch on the left will start the countdown once you enter the first letter.

Maybe that’s the way it’s meant to be, but I didn’t like the nonsensical sentences the service displays. I would have rather liked real world meaningful sentences. Anyway, who am I to judge when I got a not-so-high-score of 58 words per minute? Though I never “properly” learnt how to type, checking my typing speed at this speed test was quite an eyeopener – I didn’t realize I was not good (read “bad”) at this.

You are also provided with some HTML code that you can paste on your web site. It displays a sort of certificate. Actually, you can manipulate this code to reflect any number you want. On the whole this Speedtest is a nice resource, no doubts! And by the way, for a more accurate check of your typing speed, take the test a few times and average out the results.
