Type Faster on Various Applications

Do you want to be able to type faster? David Pogue from New York Times has listed applications that could help you become more productive through faster typing apps.

The following are these applications:

TypeIt4Me, Typinator and TextExpander for MAC.

TypeIt4Me is also available on the iPhone

AutoHotKey, ActiveWords and Texter for Windows

AutoCorrect feature for Microsoft Office applications

In-depth discussion of the typing application and features can be found here —

Typing-Expansion Software.

In an excerpt:

Of course, you can get the same effect within Microsoft Office (Mac and Windows), using its AutoCorrect feature. That arrangement has one profound advantage: the expansion happens even when you’re editing. That is, I can click just after a "w" I typed earlier; if I add a "v," it expands to "Windows Vista." With the shareware programs, by contrast, you have to type the whole thing at once, *followed* by a space or punctuation so it knows you’re finished with the abbreviation.

But Microsoft’s AutoCorrect has a big downside, too: it works only in Office. I want my expansions to be system-wide. I want it to work in my e-mail program, browser, sticky-notes app, word processor, spreadsheet, on the desktop, and so on.
