Keystroke logging software
One of my students is doing a project on people's typing habits and patterns and needs to collect data - if you are willing to use his Java application can you email me asap and I'll send it to you. It opens up a window on your screen; you choose a file where the data is to be stored, and then get typing. It acts like a notepad window - for example, I'm typing this into it right now, and will then cut and paste the text into the blog afterwards. It records the keys pressed, when down and when up, and saves all that timing info in the file. All data collected will be anonymised, but I'd suggest you didn't use it for entering your banking details or other more private info. The main aim is to collect data off and on over the course of a few days, longer if possible, to see what habits people have.
There are no questions or typing tests to answer - simply use it as a scratchpad and cut and paste into your usual applications - it would really help us if you could volunteer! Thanks.
