    For me its mostly two fingers and 40+ words per minute with no errors. I don't have to look at the keyboard the other fingers jump in every now and then.

    when I first started at my job I could only use two fingers but over the last couple of months my typing has gotten a lot better the more you type the better you become so thats what I will be doing.......more and more typing:)

    I use all my fingers when typing & would imagine that everyone else here on DP would as well, being a webmaster hangout & all.

    I did a typing class at school and can type using all my fingers and not look. Quite liberating actually to type that way.

    I've taught myself to touch type twice - once on a QWERTY keyboard and then again to learn the Dvorak layout. The Dvorak layout is 16 times more efficient for typing the English language (the average qwerty typists fingers move 16 miles per day compared to just 1 mile per day on Dvorak).

    I'm still only able to type at 55 wpm tho.
