Actually the longest word you can type with only the left side is "stweardesses".

Dang, you guys type fast! I've been learning to type with my weak (right) hand since my surgery, and I can only manage about 10 WPM.

I often eat or do other things while I'm typing, so I'm not too bad at one handed typing. I am better with my right hand though I think.

I can type pretty well with one hand. In fact I'm doing it now. (with my right hand)

Left hand takes a little longer because I'm right-handed.

It doesn't make much difference, though.

You guys ever try dictation software? Sometimes it works well, other times it mutilates sentences. ("My computer can recognize speech" becomes "My computer can wreck a nice beach"

)

I type with one hand a lot, actually....well, I do when my other hand is incapacitated (wait...I'm not thinking straight...I meant occupied!!

).

I've never come across any that worked well. I guess it was still fairly new software when I tried it a few years ago, because even after doing hours and hours of the 'teach it to understand' things, it still messed up most things.
