Fun typing programs? - Online Consumer Forums Digital-Boards.com The Consumer Network

I need to increase my typing speed, but I have a pretty short attention span (adult ADD?) and most typing programs are pretty mind-numbing. I'm looking for a program with games, or special effects...something to hold my attention, so I don't just give up. I'm not above using a children's typing program if it'll do the trick. Any suggestions?

Have you tried Mavis Beacon? I bought as CD before and typing speed increased. I am touch typist now!
