Ever wanted to figure out how fast you type? Check out TypeRacer. It’s a cool site that that lets you see how fast you type — while racing other people at the same time! Basically, you are a car that is competing with a few others on the internet that are also trying to test their typing speed. Not only are you trying to beat your best speed, but also those you are racing! Enough of me talking about it. Check it out! Don’t forget to tell us your best speed. My best (so far) is 101 WPM.
