If you can't find the answer on your own, you must be ambisinister at network usage. :^).
From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Handedness:
People who demonstrate awkwardness with both hands are said to be ambilevous or ambisinister.

Its also interesting that leftis sinister and right is dexter in Latin.
In French left is gauche.
These are words that have negative connotations in English.
In other languages there are words that stem for the word "left" that mean awkward, inept, etc.
e.g. Links , or "left" in german probably is tied to linkisch which means awkward. I'm sure that there are other words similar in other languages, but alas I have only studied but a few :-)

Why do people keep asking questions, when they know the answer is on the net already? Because old habits die hard.
I voted ambisinister.
But if you are counting for a reason, file me under left handed with ambidextrous tendencies, since I write left handed, but play racket sports and shoot (if the occasion arises) right handed, although like my dad I can play most racket sports left handed without too much loss of ability (as I have precious little to start with).

This could be partially attributed to us lefties taking additional movements and grips to cope with things that are made subtly right had centric. There are all kinds of things out there that have engineering touches for right handed people, yet after years of coping with it, I hardly notice them anymore.
