What’s your typing MO? Hunt-and-peck or touch typing? There’s one thing most of us have in common — 90% of people use the same number of fingers while typing on a computer keyboard. Is it … A.) 10, B.) Nine, C.) Eight or D.) Two?
The answer: B.) Nine. With touch typing, you’re supposed to use all 10 fingers, but most of us only use nine — usually because only one thumb hits the spacebar. Studies have shown even hunt-and-peck typists can type at the same rate as touch typists. Take that, Mavis Beacon!
