Keyboard/Typing Skills Brush-Up
"This is keybr.com, a web application that will help you teach touch typing. Touch typing is typing without using the sense of sight to find the keys. A person possessing touch typing skills will know their location on the keyboard through muscle memory. It can improve any individual's typing speed and accuracy dramatically."
This is great for parents who are home and suddenly have a little more time on their hands and who would like to brush up their basic job skills. And this is also great for students who are beginning to use their keyboards more and would do well to learn "Touch Typing," rather than "hunt and peck" typing.
A cut above typical typing programs, this online service provides an introductory tutorial explaining in clear terms how the application works, and applying the buzzword 'algorithm' to differentiate itself from standard programs of this kind. It also explains that 'keybr' tracks the time to type each key in a specific group of letters, establishing the typing speed that is then used to measure progress.
This well designed site with an easy to use interface provides an encouraging environment for a user at any skill level. The site also provides personalized statistics for all its typing exercises.
Note: If the user employs a carefully customized Hosts File, turning off the ad blocker, as the site urges users to do, this will prevent ads from appearing.
