Title: TypeRacer
Post by: nar on Mon, 13 August 2012, 10:44:21
So I remembered TypeRacer has a friends function. Anyone on this often and want to post up their usernames?
Or actually, they just put up a badge option so I can just include that:

For anyone who doesn't know, TypeRacer is an online site that lets you practice typing and in the process race with others on how fast you can complete the selected text, which is selected from a variety of sources, books, movie scripts, song lyrics.

I get around 40-55 WPM, playing as guest ftw.

I am not a native English speaker, so sometimes the text is really difficult for me.
But I liked to go this site whenever I am bored.

Is it possible to choose between texts when you sign up there?

Very nice...


It's sad that I like keyboards and can't type that fast.

Not my best, but not far from it :(

I'm not sure if I'd love typing so much if I were faster at it.
