I was wondering - who here types faster than they write and who here writes faster than they type?

It only took me a month and a half before I perfected my typing techniques. I now type super fast without even having to look at the keyboard... hehehehehe... <80 wpm O.o> So long pencil and paper!

Anyways, anyone care to respond to my question?

i realized in a lecture that i was wasting a ridiculous amount of time with my pen. unfortunately i am not blessed with computer portability, so ink is where i call home

Its not even funny how much faster I am at typing than writing. Of course typing will always be faster, just something that needs to be perfected (This is my personal conclusion from what I've learned over the years, if someone feels elsewise then by all means let me know) while with writing I can write quite fast...just that I can't read it and I have no idea what I just wrote and since I'm left handed I smear the lead....hooray!

Faster in writing, but in the long run, I tire out and my hand starts hurting and I slow down and typing is easier for me anyway. Teachers barely understand what I write too.

for me its about the same, im kinda slow at both i think but i prefer to write im most cases. i just find it more convenient.

Typing is average. but i always write faster and the result, a bad and hard-to-understand word except for me

I type faster than I write, but for classes, I tend to write since it helps me imprint things to my memory better. After classes, I tend to type up the notes really quickly while I can still decypher my handwriting.

typing faster than i write of cause ^^ i hate to write with a pen, its slow, ugly and if i write alot then it begins to hurt in the hand -_-;

I type faster than I write as well. Unfortunately, I spend too much money on my PC, anime, everything else except for saving for a laptop. Damn, I need one too..........I think. ^_^'

Typing is always faster, because i got use to talking on AIM, but I do pass notes too :D its just i hate using a pencil. Typing is alot more fun and just easier for me because i dont have to look down when i type. simple as that.

faster typing i think..maybe i can write as fast...but it would be unreadable, and its allready unreadable when i write at normal speed :sweat:

as unusual as it may seem i am faster at writing and unusual complements come with my writing style....one of them....you write like a girl....and...my manuscript looks a lot like cursive to some people

I prefer typing to writing, but the speed is probably about the same. The only thing that let's me down with my typing is that I have clumsy fingers, so although I can touch type speedily, I often hit one wrong key so if it's accuracy I'm after I prefer to write even though it's much slower. :)

Typing, no contest, writing takes me more time, and strains my wrist faster.. plus I make less spelling mistakes typing believe it or not.

I'm much faster at typing. Plus, when I'm writing, I get tired quickly.

Same for me, also my hands will begin to sweat very quickly which makes it even more difficult to write.

I don't do much writing at all, pretty much only when writing out checks.

oh I definatly type faster than I write. I actually enjoy typing too O_o Carpel tunnels here I come.

Typing, Writing?? I accualy haven't wrote anything in many years, besides my signature for invoices for my Credit Card HAHA :)

I'm serious too..... :hmpf: Recently I was asked to jot down some notes real quick and i looked at what I wrote and i was like.... whaaaaa the hell is this XD

i can tell you that I can type faster than I can speak though :o

typing is more convenient i guess.... and besides, nobody could even read my penmanship even if i write slow ^_^'

Typing is faster for me. It's not that hard. I get lazy when I write and it becomes unreadable.

I must admit I am way more faster at typing, although I sometimes let a mistake slip here or there that I wouldn't have made by ink. But mistakes can be corrected, so I'd rather type, and it spares me from re-writting my work or anything later on, because my hand-writting can be a pretty mess for non-exercised eyes.

im way more faster at typing too
but i never learn to
so i type everything using only my pointer, index and ring fingers
i look, but i can still typre real fast XD

for me.. typing is definitely faster.. and not only that.. its much neater.. because if i were to write fast using a pen/pencil... i would have scribbled all the way haha
:D

hehe well I type faster then I write only thing I write now a days is my signature... And that doesnt happen often :p
