A few weeks ago there was someone typing so fast in the coworking space, that I considered if they were actually typing words at all. Maybe they were playing this type test game? Anyway - it was introduced to me by sound artist / musician Olly Romoff (who created a playlist for the coworking space the other week). Can you beat my top score of 102? Enjoy. https://monkeytype.com/
