typingThis is a recommendation post. You have got to check out and sign up for this at Typeracer.com. This is the coolest thing online for working on your typing skills.

A little bit about it. You can do “practice” sets and you can compete with other online people or your friends. It displays your skill level, average speed, and races completed. You are able to view your own scores, as well as the fastest typists. You can race against anywhere from one to four or five other typists and watch all the typists progression and where you are in that race. The program also sets you up to race with typists that are around the same level as you so you don’t feel either completely humiliated with defeat or not challenged.

Generally when I’m working on accuracy and speed drills, I use a program called Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing. It has games, tests, and a great graphical interface. It’s a fun way to work on and improve your typing skills. This one I suggest for getting the nitty-gritty, basic to advanced, practice to getting better at your typing.

What I love about Typeracer.com is it’s fun to compete against others. A little bit of my competitive nature coming out with this suggestion. I’m amazed at some of the speed skills that are out there. And I think I’m pretty good, so it definitely humbled me a bit.

You don’t have to sign up to use the website and compete, but would definitely encourage you to if you want to compete with friends and track how you’re doing.

Have fun and let me know what you think!
