Ever tried learning typing using a Typing Tutor Software? When I was getting my typing lessons, I was told that I shouldnβt look at my keyboard, even if I am doing it all worng.
Well, that doesnβt work easily, unless you have military level of discipline, you are gonna look over and over to find the o’s and the w’s.
The solution? The Ultimate Typing Tutor keyboard:
(All keys are not photoshop-ped. Some keys were actually losing their imprints and hence the inspiration.)
Wish I could send all my twitter friends this keyboard, so that they can tweet faster π
What do you think? Such a keyboard would defenitely help anyone learn typing; Necessity will become the mother of invention… right?
Typing is a skill. Consistent practice will determine how much your typing speed will increase.
Cheers ! π
You said it.. and for practice, you need to train yourself to not to look at the keyboard. This keyboard will help π
Is it for sale ? π
Yeah, I would give it you for $500 only :D. Its special rate, just for you. π
Arrange a contest and give this as a prize ! .. π
Dont scare me man, No more giveaways untill I am totally free, Giveaways are time suckers π
And if I give this keyboard away, how will I learn typing..? π
Close your eyes and type buddy ! π .. It helps .. I guess….
The human brain formulates the sentences based on whats written out already, so if we close our eyes, we wont get the visual feedback, means our sentences would be imperfect. I think so π
My keyboard is in this state now.
Clean it up – Take a picture and put it up for sale on eBay! Might sell off.. he he π
Back in the olden days when they taught typing in US high schools, keyboards didn’t have letters on them. You were expected to learn something called “touch typing” and you were expected to type 60 some words per minute! (Kinda like “touch” piano playing I think.)
In spite of that, I’m still not a good typist and have to cheat and look sometimes and I’m no where near 60 words per minute.
Lol, I think most of us cheat while typing. I am cool with the alpha-numerics, but the symbols are always hard to find for me…
BTW, they used to teach typing at school..? That’s news for me. I attended a typing school to have my lessons, dropped out when I could type 20 wpm π
Good to see you here, Welcome π
I haven’t removed my keyboard cover till now. It had been 2 years since i bought it still looks as new.
Typing Master is a very good software. I have been using it for long time and also now. It helped me a lot to improve my typing speed.
Typing Master is the one with some typing games..right..? I never used the software, but I had it on my pc to play those games π
I used to do an exercise to improve speed: I would type down song lyrics when the song is being played. Definitely helped me π
What is your average typing speed Arun ? ..
Something close to 45. Haven’t tested that though, but its good when I am in good mood π
Wow…This is the keyboard that i was searching three year before for improving my typing skills.
After my SSC. first thing i did is learn typing and it helps me a lot.
Very fast in typing π
It was my Dad’s brother who advised me to learn typing. I always do whatever he tells me. If I hadn’t learnt typing, I wouldn’t be blogging, maybe..
Haha thats awesome. Once I finish my typing lessons i’ll have to try that.
Lol, glad that you liked it bro π
WOW! awesome dude! shld hav tried it before! he hi! SO is this the secret of ur typing speed?
Lol, It was my little secret, not anymore π
I like to share one tip to improve typing speed for symbols.
Try to type the emoticon and smiley symbols in IMs like Yahoo ! Messenger rather than selecting them from the panel.
That helped me a lot ! π
I see, you use a lot of emoticons btw, no wonder it helped π
Best way to cheat is to use a Dictation type of software! Le the computer do the hard, boring stuff – isn’t that what it is supposed to be for?
Then blogging can be that I can lie on the floor and dictate to my computer…
