Has myLot helped you improve your typing speed?

I did data entry for years before I retired. I used to type away and blast thru some of the chat rooms, they'd say - wow, you type fast! I don't believe that I'm typing faster than I did while I was still working, and I know I'm making more mistakes - but I don't see the info in front of me like I did when I was working.

Yeah your right but not as good as looking for something to copy. It will really speed your typing skills and to the point that you don't have to look at the keyboard while typing.Here in mylot we can learn a lot and share our knowledge to everyone, hoping that we can also help emotionally for some peace of advice. We can also enhance our language skills even sometimes there is a wrong grammar. I myself if i don't know the word, i really look at online dictionary to find it and feed that new word.

I think mylot has helped because I noticed that I now incur lesser errors in my typing. I already type fast but my accuracy was lamentable. When mylot started, there was no auto word check that I got to have lots of errors. But now, I have noticed that my errors are getting lesser and lesser.

when i think about it,it probably has. i still get some bad typos once in awhile though,but that may be due to typing faster in and of itself. i have noticed i'm getting better at the multi-finger typing since being on here though.

Yes, we can improve your typing skills ,and the same time our english grammar improves too.

I agree! Im not really sure about the accuracy though, but Im finding it that I have less and less typos. The accuracy I agree a hundred percent. Im not sure but how much though but I do like to think so. I know before I average at least 31 words per minute. Now, im not so sure. I also think taht saying you're own opiniions and typing tings that you just have to copy are two very different things because in typing your thoughts, it's unlimited. You can just go on and on and on in typing but when you have to type a script of texts or somthing it consumes more time. At least in my case because I never learned to jsut look at the screen and type away, I ahve to look at what im going to type and at the keyboard. I also have a different orientation because I first learned to type in a typewriter so I have to exert more to punch in the keys and there are levels with the letters whereas in a keyboard its all flat. Never have chagned the habit of typing with force and furiously so laptop keyboards dont do well for me. Thanks for the observation because I was thinking about it because of my typing all day here in mylot.^_^
