What touch typing software to suggest to new typists?
« on: Tue, 28 August 2012, 14:40:36 »
Hi,

recently some of my friends asked me if I could tell them a good source to learn touch typing. As I have learned it about a decade ago myself with some weird freeware tool on some PC magazine CD, I did not have any good advice. I just told them google "touch typing online" and pick any one.

Are there big differences between desktop and online applications? Is it worth paying for a better touch typing tutor? What do you think?

Typing of the Dead, since it is at least slightly entertaining as well.
