Typing Techniques


Keyboarding skills are important. Not only will it save you time, but it looks pretty cool to see someone whip away at all those keys with precision. The better you are at the keyboard, the better you are able to use it as a tool. Tha is, until someone invents a computer that will automatically read your thoughts. (Mr. Grafton mental note: invent a computer that will automatically read peoples' thoughts... sell it for a bunch of money.)
