    Here's a version that works:

    50 States in 10 Minutes

    You do not need to capitalize or hit the return key. I'm not even going to tell you how badly I did.

    Missed 8. Added 7 that don't exist. Need to learn how to spell someday.

    Did it in 8:03 using Google as a spell check...without it I'd probably got 40.

    Missed Mississippi. Figures. I worked back and forth across that damn river and for the last 3 minutes never saw its namesake. Drat!

    Named all 50 with 3:03 to spare. Having the map helped ("Did I remember xxxx? Ooh, no, I didn't!").

    Hey, a map is cheating! I would not have done nearly as badly as I did if I'd had been looking at a map. (Even a blank one just showing outlines!)

    The first link had a map. Your link didn't work for me (Avira said not to click on it so I didn't).

    This may also help:

    Is it sad, that I was thinking of that when I read the thread title?

    I love the one where they name all the US presidents. It is a shame nobody really watches these anymore. Kids learn via MTV it seems.

    That's very odd. The first link didn't work for me. It said it could not find the site. I googled "guess the 50 states" and came up with the link I posted, which worked for me. But it just has a text box, no map.

    Now I tried the original link again and this time it worked.

    The best way to do this is name all the states in a region, then move around so "no state is left behind". :D
