OH MY GOD. We are now best friends. Whenever I type its my right hand that does all the typing and the left just does the occasional caps lock. I have a horrible balance of hand coordination. :P

Wait so you don't use the shift key for capital letters?

I never learnt the home-row touch typing method - instead, I've just become familiar where each of the letters are from online social networking. Not surprisingly, my result was 48wpm because I'm a very sloppy typer. :P

Offtopic, but what are people's typical WPMs?

If I'm on a familiar, laptop-style chiclet keyboard that I've used for a week, then I would easily bust out ~100wpm avg, even 80wpm+ with hard formatting, apostrophes galore, etc.

Does anybody have any connections to data entry jobs? They pay well and I'm pretty apt with my typing - I think there's the potential to make a lot of money there. It just sucks because they're hard to come by as you often need to work as a receptionist as well. All I want to do is transcription.

This is a serious request if anyone has connections - I'd love to do this passively for income.

Edit: Should have read the whole thread. Will test WPM now and post back results.

126wpm with 8 errors to make 118wpm with 93% accuracy.
