I spent a month in 2011 learning Colemak. I never got siginificantly faster than QWERTY, but is was way more comfortable and easy on the hands. Sadly, I went back to QWERTY because I just couldn't manage to retain QWERTY ability. I typed like a retard on other people's machines, and because I spend some of my work hours helping and teaching others (on their machines), this ended up a deal-breaker. I had thought by typing in QWERTY in the mornings I would be able to retain both, but I just couldn't actually do that in practice. Learning Colemak ended up being an overall negative experience, even, because QWERTY seems even more stupid than it always has, after experiencing something better.
