I use two fingers (both index fingers). I've become accustomed to this method of typing, and can therefore achieve a high WPM with minimal typos. For example, this post took less than a minute to type.

I can't use a pecking style anymore. I have to use at least five fingers if I use two hands (three on the left and two on the right) otherwise I start making a huge amount of spelling mistakes.

I use anywhere from two to eight fingers to type. I just use whichever finger is closest to the key I want to press (unless it's a pinkie finger), especially if they happen to be far apart. I used to be able to type with one hand, but I lost that ability.

It's been years since I actually tested my typing speed. I have a stopwatch with me, I think I will test it out.

...

Okay, test over. I got a nice 36 words, no typos. I did have to pause for a few seconds to backspace and add a missing "w", and I kind of messed up the stopwatch, losing 3 or 4 seconds. Also, I cannot type without staring at the keyboard unless I want to make typos every few seconds, and I can't remember what to type for more than a few words (unless I'm thinking it up as I go along) so it might be a max of 50 WPM, if I chose an easier passage to type (I chose the first words of the Three Word Story, which includes many long words that I added myself) and got someone else to do the timing. Or if I was thinking it up as I went along, as I'm doing now, since I wouldn't have to look up at all and waste time figuring out what to type next.

I use every finger except my right thumb to type.

I mainly use my right and left pointer fingers to type, but every now and then I will use a different style of typing, and when I feel it, I will use home row. Right now my style if to use my pinky for the shift, and the backspace. I use either my pointers for space, or my thumbs.

Infect, my latest blogpost was about Mary Poppins slapping Cthulhu and existence having a seizure. During a hurricane. That relocated a city of vague origin to Antartica, which was moved into the tropics before the story started. That dog isn't jarring. To me anyways.

That dog is not scary. I have seen what nedben looks up an a regularly basis. If I don't vomit my lungs to nedbens MLP porn, that dog is not scary.
