Wow I never knew the proper definition for WPM - when I was young I started learning to type in VI and I practiced speed which as I recall was around 60 words / min, but trying out my typing speed on that webpage I find my speed under proper WPM definition I'm doing 110 WPM awesome :)) Typing fast and efficiently has many benefits - you save energy, you do things faster. Although in the case of programming typing speed is only one factor which determine how well you program. One could argue that learning more powerful languages or the ability to problem solve are equally if not more important.
