Improve your Typing with Typing Speed Monitor

Typing Speed Monitor it’s a Google Chrome extension which records your typing speed. This extension also includes some interesting data about your typing.

If you are always looking for a way to improve your typing speed and want to know some of the facts about your daily work with the keyboard, the Typing Speed Monitor should fit perfectly: How long you’ve spent typing, what characters you’ve typed most, and provides you with a keyboard visualization that tells you statistics about each of the keys you’ve typed.

I think this tool to be more useful could include some other data about your typing, for example: words we usually mistype, average speed / average mistyping, or even some exercises about how to improve your speed or accuracy.
