typing software or website to practise typing.


I am looking for an app that I can use to test my typing and practise.

Can someone suggest such an app for Linux or a website that I can try my typing.

Came across this via a simple google search, hope this helps: http://www.linuxlinks.com/article/20...ingTutors.html

Also, this thread most likely needs to be moved, reported (not a bad thing! Just try to keep threads like this in a more general section)

Cheers!

Edit - For reference: http://www.novell.com/products/linux...e/tuxtype.html (fault on my part)
