How Fast Can You Type?

Fingerjig Typing Game

Fingerjig is a fun little typing game that tests your accuracy and speed for randomly selected words (each level tests a different typing skill). I could hit a little above 80 wpm on the long words, but slowed down to a painful 10 wpm on the single letters. I suggest you turn off your speakers though, the sound is really annoying.

    I think the single letter part is also hard because previous letters obscure the current letter when they fly out at you.

    I know a place that will hire you at 40 wpm. But you have to keep that average up over 8 hours. They pay $6.15 an hour!

    I wish I would have known of a company like that in high school. I had a bulldog of a woman typing teacher who would whip our hands with rulers if we weren’t keeping up a certain speed. Hurt like #$@#.

    By the end of the semester, we were all typing above 80 wpm (one girl could sustain ~150 for easier transcriptions, I typed 100-120). Best and worst teacher ever.

    Kinda makes me wish I had learned to type.

    Fun game. I will send it to our secretaries who enjoy “hunting and pecking the keyboard” instead of efficiently typing.
