TypeRacer was launched by programmer Alex Epshteyn, working on his own, using the OpenSocial API and the Google Web Toolkit.〔("Featured Projects on Google Code: TypeRacer" ), July 08, 2008. Retrieved November 1, 2010.〕 Epshteyn was inspired by teaching himself to touch type with a shareware Windows program that lacked a multiplayer mode. He describes himself as not a hardcore gamer, and had never played other multiplayer typing games such as The Typing of the Dead. He has, however, since been contacted by a former Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing engineer, who expressed approval of TypeRacer.〔("The Story Behind The Addictive Web-Game 'TypeRacer,' A Competitive Mavis Beacon" ), by Patrick Klepek, MTV, May 8, 2008.
