Do you type without looking at the keyboard?

Elli · 04-11-2008, 10:20 AM

Of course! I got a new keyboard though, so I'm having trouble finding my F2 key sometimes.

stickyfingerz · 04-11-2008, 10:21 AM

Yes 45678

Fucksakes · 04-11-2008, 10:21 AM

yeah like 15 years ago.. after years of working in the dark..

directfiesta · 04-11-2008, 10:22 AM

Sometimes I fuck without looking ....

cranki · 04-11-2008, 10:26 AM

mostly... sometimes I have to look for characters I rarely use...

PerrieBelle · 04-11-2008, 10:40 AM

I look down before i start a sentance to make sure I'm in the right direction!

LauraLee · 04-11-2008, 10:41 AM

Yes.

StuartD · 04-11-2008, 10:45 AM

I never look at my keyboard.

By the way, deceiving poll. You ask "do you type without looking" in the thread title and then "do you look at the keyboard while typing" in the thread question. I almost answered wrong.

Shey · 04-11-2008, 10:46 AM

gotta peek every once in a while, I think it's mostly habit though.

mrwilson · 04-11-2008, 10:46 AM

i just say what i want to type and have the missus type it for me whilst i am drinking a beer.
She's gone to get the beer now so i have had to type this

kmanrox · 04-11-2008, 10:48 AM

i did for like 15 years.. just a few months ago i started to not look at the keys and whatta ya know, i can do it just as fast..

belive it or not even when i looked at the keyboard i always typed a zillion wpm... since i have an unorthodox finger setup i visually kept my place... now i just know where my fingers are and where the corresponding keys are

jakethedog · 04-11-2008, 10:54 AM

i look "sort of" .. i mean i look for the first letter usually I mean i know where they are .. just ..ya i look but not pecking by any means .. i think i am pretty fast .. the wife fucking kills me without looking .. but i am not to bad .. way fucking slower not looking ..

Reak AGV · 04-11-2008, 10:56 AM

I never peek on my keyboard

sniperwolf · 04-11-2008, 11:56 AM

yes, i gotta peek sometimes to check that my fingers are in the right direction.

rowan · 04-11-2008, 12:06 PM

I only need a glance at the very start to get myself oriented, then I'm looking at the characters as I type. This can cause issues if I'm logged in via SSH to an overloaded server, because the characters can come back a second or two after I actually press the key, gets me all muddled.

Honez · 04-11-2008, 12:11 PM

I only look when things start to not look right which is all the time.

Violetta · 04-11-2008, 01:17 PM

Yes I do... I always look down for the first letter, then the rest is on auto!

selena · 04-11-2008, 01:27 PM

Touch typist except for now and then for the numbers or special characters.

Mike Honcho · 04-11-2008, 02:10 PM

That's like asking if a bear shits in the woods.

BusterBunny · 04-11-2008, 02:13 PM

only for some numbers and punctuation shit

dav3 · 04-11-2008, 02:18 PM

home row 4 lyf

MissMina · 04-11-2008, 02:19 PM

Yes I do. Most of the time. I type one handed too. I just cant do it with two.

Rochard · 04-11-2008, 03:03 PM

I never look at the keyboard.....

scottybuzz · 04-11-2008, 05:53 PM

i know qwerty typing skills baby!

GrouchyAdmin · 04-11-2008, 05:55 PM

I'm a bit bizarre - I hunt and peck at about 100wpm.

Spunky · 04-11-2008, 05:59 PM

I hunt and peck

qxm · 04-11-2008, 05:59 PM

I haven't seen my keyboard in years!...........FUCK THIS THING IS DIRTY!!! (TIME TO BUY A NEW ONE!) ............ lol .. kidding ;)

TheSenator · 04-11-2008, 06:02 PM

Yeah....I just need to see the first letter and then I can type the shit out of typing. I type even better when I am drunk...

Bojangles · 04-11-2008, 07:01 PM

Not anymore.

Dunno if I'm that fast but I do pretty well for a 2 finger + thumb for space typer. I used to do work at a school with an ancient IBM keyboard, which was super tactile clattery... people would always comment at the strange noises it made when I was sitting at it.

AdPatron · 04-11-2008, 08:44 PM

nope I close my eyes and hope for the best!

tony286 · 04-11-2008, 08:51 PM

hunt and peck all the way. lol

After Shock Media · 04-11-2008, 09:21 PM

Only time I ever end up looking is when it is like real late at night, in bed, and dark. Then for some odd reason my laptop had slid a small bit or turned some. Then I go type say the letter S and I will hit the W or the E. Under most situations I will just automatically hit the backspace and then hit the correct letter. However sometimes I just keep hitting the wrong damn line until I readjust the laptop. Also find it strange, is that I often know when I hit the wrong key and will automatically be hitting the backspace the very millisecond after hitting it.

Now when I move from the laptop to the PC I may have a prob for a few min. Or if someone places a different keyboard in front of me.

Barefootsies · 04-11-2008, 09:45 PM

Most of the time, I do not look.

But when I am tired, or lazy I will have to look sometimes.

Fucksakes · 04-11-2008, 10:05 PM

I don't get it when ppl say they look down to start.. your F and J have a small bump on the keys so you know where your home keys are.

sadly when I started high school I took a typing coarse (electric typewritter) thinking I would be in a class full of girls. That was not an easy class at the time.. but yeah from day 1 I was not allowed to look at my keyboard.

martinsc · 04-11-2008, 10:17 PM

nope... when i was in highschool i had a class that teached us how to type on typewriters... those old noisy things.

munki · 04-11-2008, 10:23 PM

I go back and forth... most of the time it's the no look approach... sometimes I'm just drunk.

CDSmith · 04-11-2008, 10:33 PM

I used a typing tutor program to learn, which trains you to look at the screen, not at the keys.

I never look at the keys.
