First attempt:
Your speed was: 64wpm.

Congratulations! You made no mistakes, practice does make perfect.

Quite a bit slower than when I was at uni, but I got a lot more practise at typing large blocks of text back then. Wow, essays... don't miss those at all :) Slightly surprised by the (lack of) error rate - considering most of my typing these days is on IRC.

82 and I woke up three minutes ago. :) Will try again later post-caffeine, heh.

I got 73 :) It claims that I didn't make any mistakes, but I know I did (I typed out instead of our, grrr.)

Ouch - 38 WPM, but I was doing it on a crappy laptop keyboard, hands tense and uncomfortable, and I did automatically backspace to correct a couple of errors when I shouldn't have.

My girlfriend just got 73WPM - on a laptop keyboard. She said she's somewhere about the mid 80's on a normal keyboard...

I miss IRC =*(
71 wpm, 1 mistake .. I always misspell it:
medieval. I spelled it midieval.. I learned how to type on IRC, so I figure I'm doing okay. Start classes again next Tuesday, though.. *YUCK*
