On Typing Day, we remember the good old days of clunky typewriters and loud keystrokes. Or maybe we don’t remember them, because we’re not that old.
So let’s break out your favorite keyboard (or your favorite virtual keyboard, if that’s your thing) and get ready to type!
January 8th is none other than Typing Day, a day that celebrates the art of finger-dancing on a keyboard, the beauty of the typed word, and the glory of the QWERTY layout.
So, why should we celebrate Typing Day?
Well, for starters, typing is a skill that has become essential in today’s world.
Whether it’s sending an email, writing a report, or just typing a message to a friend, we use typing every day in some way or another.
It’s a tool that allows us to communicate efficiently and effectively.
But Typing Day isn’t just about celebrating the act of typing itself, it’s also about celebrating the power of the written word.
Words have the ability to inspire, educate, and entertain us, and they can be a powerful tool for change.
So, how can we celebrate Typing Day?
- Go retro to the roots of the subject and dust off that old typewriter collecting dust in your attic and give it a spin. There’s something about the sound of the keys and the feel of the paper that can be incredibly satisfying.
- Challenge yourself to type as fast as you can!
There are plenty of online typing tests to see how you measure up against the rest of the world.
Or, you could even set a goal to improve your typing speed throughout the year - Why not try out a new keyboard layout or even learn a new typing technique?
It’s a great way to break out of your typing rut and maybe even increase your typing speed. - Gather friends and family for a good old-fashioned typing competition on those old traditional typewriters.
Set a timer, let the ink fly and MAKE SOME NOISE! - And, just maybe, finally write that novel you’ve been meaning to start or finish that short story you’ve been working on? Who knows, Typing Day might just be the inspiration you need to put pen to paper, or rather, fingers to keyboard.
📃
Typing Day is the perfect time to type-set your goals and to ink in some time to celebrate the power of the written word.
It’s time to put the “write” in “right.”
Happy Typing Day!
