How fast do you type when you post here?
take this test: http://www.typingtest.com/index.asp?go=typetest_start . Choose test duration 1 min, and text Huckleberry Finn.

My score on Net Speed was: 65 WPM

Tex
I hate those tests!
They always give me one whenever I go to apply for a job!

finti
Dont have the JAva required

finti
Tex got a typing test applying for a job at Burger King

Tex

finti
no, it is just that I have Windows XP dont need no cheap scape java there

mah
yeah, Windows XP InternetExplorer comes without Java. really screwed up

finti

Raz
Gross: 74 WPM

Net Speed: 72 WPM

Haven't done one of these tests for years. Last time I think I was about 30WPM.

mah
finti no it really is screwed up, it was because of some trouble between Microsoft and the developers of their Java software, Sun.

so do the test, Tex.

new Net Score; 67 WPM

finti

Corran

Fitch
don't have Java but if I run into netscape I can do it.
I'm not so interesed to find out anyway....

mah
I find your lack of Java disturbing

Fitch
I have Java,in netscape.....

finti
dont need no Java, the stone age past long ago

mah
what does that mean finti?

finti
there is a reason why java aint part of IE 6

mah
yes, as I said

finti
dont need it, and sorry mah didnt see that one

Fire
well java can still be useful,

Thomas H
boring!smile

mah
i command you to take the test fire!

Thomas H
like he cares...!hehe

Fitch
yup.mah is right.there was a fight beetween Sun and Microsoft and now if u want Java on IE you need to pay for it.Something pretty stupid considering that on Netscape or Opera is free.Java is something pretty common on the net for interactive things,although is an old tehnology.

Tex
I still haven't taken it.stick out tongue

Fitch
neighter me....

Raz
Yep, Microsoft have been ordered to include Java in future versions: http://www.microsoft.com/java/

Ushgarak

Ushgarak

BackFire349
i type about 70 wpm when i try. usually i type slower just cuz otherwise its like work and who wants to work when relaxing talking to his buddies on a message board.

Fitch
a very good point..

finti
So when are you secretaries finished with the test

BackFire349
i didnt take the test, i took a typing class in high school and that was the last time i tested my "skills".

mah
typing of the dead...now that's a game I'd like to try actually..you've got it ush?

Lara
i think it's about 60 - 70 wpm when I can be bothered and when I'm not copying anything. why do you want to know this any way?

finti
he needs someone to type his term papers

mah
em, just gave a link to a test, that's all

Lara
ok, I'll go do that not and then get back to you! I havent done it!

Lara
quite lousey, its copying! 37wpm

Corran
Someone actually slower than me.

mah
it's a difficult text to write quickly..

Lara
damn right!

Fitch
these tests are really stupid...what do they prove ?nothing.......

mah
no..but you can see if you're fast at typing. that's the only real goal of them, they don't pretend to be a fantastic ride through wonderland.

Fitch
yeah...but I can see how fast I write in a word document or on the net.I do not need a precise numver(45w/min) or something like that.....

Ushgarak
I had a very dodgy copy of TOTD a whole back, but not now, which is a shame because it was an amazing little game. Worth getting on budget if they release it there.

Co-op mode too- amazing!

Fitch
TOTD.....wich is the full name ?

mah
I want it..it should be the most interesting of the series, opposite to the new Pinball of the Dead

rusky

rusky
