I bought an iPad


Obligatory post from iPad. This WordPress app is slick. I love this device already. I think I’ve been waiting for a touchscreen computer for my whole life. I just didn’t expect the onscreen keyboard to be good enough that I could actually type at a decent speed. I’ve actually been playing TypeRacer at http://play.typeracer.com (there’s an option to play as Guest). So far, I’ve been getting between 35 and 45 words per minute, and I expect that to improve with practice. For comparison, I can type about double that speed on my laptop, on a good day. So, already significantly faster than on my mobile phones, that’s for sure. It’s amazing how I don’t even need to look at the keys. I was worried that I’d miss the keys because you can’t feel them, but somehow it’s working really pretty well!
