To type I only use my two index fingers. I tried an online typing test ([url=http://10fastfingers.com/typing-test/english]here[/url]), and managed to exceed 60wpm in each of my attempts, but doing so required very intense effort which I could never maintain.
I am sure some of you will be able to hit 100wpm, meaning a rate like 60wpm would be stress free and practical for everyday use. Learning to type properly seems like a skill I really should have, in this increasingly computer and productivity focused world.
I'm looking for suggestions on how best to learn.

Edited by Butane: 2/13/2013 8:07:29 AMThis reminds me of the old typing programs on Macs in the early 90's.... I just played Oregon Trail. Mario taught me back then. I'm kind of in the "just do it" line of thinking. I do not position my fingers correctly, but can easily type over 80 wpm according to that test. I'm to the point where I don't think I could learn to do it correctly anymore since I've been doing this way for as long as I can remember. Seriously, I think writing some of the papers in college and wherever else helped me the most.
