Continuing on the series of typing trainer websites and softwares, this post introduces you to yet another website designed for increasing your typing speed.
You might be thinking "Blah. Another speed typing website.". Well, this particular websites takes things to another level, with a touch of gaming. (Ever heard of using Nitro boosts during a typing race? Yeah...)
Visiting Nitro Type loads up a website resembling decals on an American muscle car. The effect is immediate. The website is a deal bigger than the previous typing websites mentioned in this blog. There are international leaderboards, stats, an option to race with friends, and even a garage!
You can just race with players around the world (The faster you type, the faster your car goes) as a guest, or make an account and unlock the plethora of options offered by this site that makes it more of a MMO game than a typing trainer. Customise your car, challenge users, knock off milestones and gain reputation. Heck, you can even join a bunch of your mates together in a team and wreck havoc in the typing charts across the globe (Finally something that allows us to truly become 'Keyboard Warriors' =P ).
The racing part is complete with engine revving sounds and dubstep music playing in the background.
And there is nothing more satisfying than seeing your user name sitting on top of the 'fastest racers' chart. Or using nitro near the end of a race to blast ahead of the leader in the last few microseconds.
Simply addicting.
