As much as typing has become a regular part in nearly everyone's daily routine. There is still a lot of people who don't use the keyboard correctly. I suppose you could say, "I hit the buttons and the letters come up, that means I'm doing it right!" This means you are using it properly, as in it is working how it's meant to for you. But you can do a lot to dramatically increase your speed.

Typing speed seems to be on the increase rapidly. Gone are they days when everyone in a library would be hunched over the keyboard searching for letters with their index finger. Usually its common to see people typing at a pretty average speed. The average typing speed today is between 50-70 wpm, some jobs even require a typing speed of 80-90 wpm!

WPM = Words per minute

Have you ever wondered how fast you type?
