Can you type without looking?

«13
I've probably been typing since I popped out the womb. Plus, my keyboard key's worn off, so I sort of have to lol

    Nope, I can't. I'm kinda okay without looking but I tend to have to backspace more often. :D

    Welp... That was supposed to say smth along the lines of "Probably not? I like Green Day though. I definitely missed a t there." (in my sentence.)
    I will persevere! Gimmie a sec...

    So close! (a new day is dawning, paradise burning, we live in troubled times. - mismatched lyrics to a Green Day song, incredibly wrong but I only listened to it first yesterday so I'm excused if I don't know the lyrics quite right.)

    Yes. I was taught that way on a typewriter and had to do speed wpm exams. I always have to look for the numbers on the top row though on my laptop. I find texting on phones infuriating!

    Yep! After about 11 years of using a laptop or a computer for almost every day, may it be writing stories or just uploading statuses I have been able to master where most of the alphabet is on a keyboard, It's a little different for numbers, those I have to look at especially if its using the number pad but the alphabet, shift keys, caps lock and like full stops, apostrophes and such is easy to type without looking.

    I agree with @Mchap353 too though. Texting on phones can be quite troubling, especially if you use a large phone and get used to the keyboard and then move to a more smaller phone with a tiny screen and you find yourself struggling to type with the smaller keys... I myself like the phones that have a mini keyboard on the actual phone and not on the touch screen! Like the old blackberry models.

    @Mchap353 Yeah, I had no idea that would happen! :D Quite surprised
  • ChampandGirlieChampandGirlie Posts: 2,482 Member
    Yes, I can. I'm at a mid-range/"fluent" speed but I could stand to get faster. I'm like 98% accurate without looking though and sometimes pretty fast.

    @Kendrana Wow! I only got to 65wpm on my old school typewriter. I didn't need it but found the skill very useful in my job later and it never leaves you.

    I can type without looking but I make minor mistakes. I'm able to fix those mistakes easily by just backspacing and selecting the next key over. I type fastest when I randomly look down at my keyboard every few words. Not all keyboards are made the same and sometimes that can throw me off until I get comfortable. When I was comfortable using a keyboard for a desktop computer that had taller keys I tried to use my laptop(which I didn't use often at that time) and it was a big difference.

    I look down every now and then, mainly because I ALWAYS FORGET WHAT I'M IN THE MIDDLE OF TYPING, and it gives me a second to think! xD

    Like @SimplyAimless it took me a while to get used to my laptop, since I've been using deep-keyed desktop keyboards for god knows how long. Either way, I've been using computers since I can remember, so I'm very good at typing! xD

    Depends on the keyboard... If it's not my own then I have trouble.

    Ivan hype without looking with no problem oh mybolcokpiter. Here's me typing without looking on my phone.

    (Translation of first sentence: I can type without looking with no problem on my computer. Somehow the second sentence came out flawless.)
