Typing with one hand

Post by daleighan »

Today, I started to teach myself to type with only my left hand. my current speed at that is 25 words per minute! how fast can you type with one hand.

at about 20 words per minute, but my typeing normaly sucks anywas so 20 isn't so bad for me. not too too good.

I'm better at typeing with my eyes cloased. with them closed I can get about 35 to 40.

Ah, screw one-handed typing. The true elite can type with no hands, and at 50 wpm. I actually know someone who's really good at nose typing. I can only imagine how much of a pain it would be to capitalize a word without using the caps lock button.

I suppose the tongue technique would come into play then?
