I think it works good, but the only issue I have is that every time I try to set it up so it'll do the "type anywhere" mode, it won't let met install the DLL. I don't know if it's because of the age of the program (I AM using Microsoft Vista), or if it's an error with the program. Figured I'd give you a heads up. Otherwise, it works great. :)

I thougt it would accually measure the speed. All it really does is count how many times u use the space bar. Not really worth trying.

Does not measure speed accurately. Takes too long to reach actual speed, but drops unbelievably quickly. This lag makes the typing times invalid.

I would prefer if it calculated AWPM. You could just randomly slap the keyboard and the widget would still only give you 30WPM and the words would not be modified for errors.

Definetly not a learning tool or anything to measure your skill by. As a "competitive" typer, I think there is a lot of room for improvement in accuracy.

See http://typera.tk/index.cws for example - every typist's wet dream.

the problem I had is one, it gives you and option of time, but yet it doesn't stop. Secondly when I stop I would like to know the average typing speed. It does have a highest rate, but I usually can't read it because the window is too small and whatever the number is gets caught half way.

Lastly, I think it would, if this is possible, really be cool if it worked liked real typing rate programs work, where it deducts so much for mistakes or whatever. It was fun to play around on though, and again I thought the layout was pretty cool.

Where and how do I set this up??

Thx in advance!
