you could type faster using an auto complete tool like turbo type. after you type in the first few letters turbo type will insert the rest with lighting speed :D

There’s an app called Breevy (http://www.16software.com/breevy/) that can help you “type” faster by allowing you to abbreviate text.

Example: you could type ‘wub’ have have Breevy automatically expand it to “What’s going on dude?”, or type ‘favw’ and have Breevy replace it with your favorite website address.
