type without looking down

[richboywonder]

this seems veery hard to do.i can never type without looking at the keyboard.and i know i'm not the only one.so does anyone know how to do this.

[Luis]

...it seems it should be in the spam section... I think XD

PS: I look at the keyboard when I type.

[Spec Highwind]

Hum... sometimes I do it, sometimes I don't... But I rarely look at the keyboard

[Kat]

i look at it every once in a while,but other wise not real often

[Arkacia]

Not looking at the keys is called touch typing, and yes I can do it. Learned at school many years ago, and refreshed a couple of years ago using a typing learning program I found on the internet. Can't remember its name offhand though.

If you are interested in learning how to touch type, and increase your typing speed, then just google for such a program. They aren't hard to find or use.

[Shaggy]

I do it on the fisrt part of typing just to get a idea where I need to put the hands and then I look down every so often just to see if I make a mistake and try to find the right key. I'm did this exact thing on this write out here.

[Hydra]

When you become aquainted with the keys, you can do it naturally. Like me. XD Learning the correct way to type is a different story though.

[Zeromus_X]

It takes practice, but it isn't hard to do once you learn how to do it.

Well, that's not to say that I can type everything perfectly 100% of the time, anyway.

[richboywonder]

i can type fast only when i'm looking at the keyboard.

[Hydra]

If you practice, it'll naturally come to you. Like you can type fast with looking at the keyboard because you practiced at it long enough. It's the same without looking down. Just practice a little. ^_^

[richboywonder]

ok i'm going to try and type without looking and see what i type.

[Zeromus_X]

Well, have you had a formal computer class or something of that sort? You'll probably have one in high school if you haven't already.

[richboywonder]

i'll get my computer class in school but i have to wait until christmas is over then i get to take the class.we practice typing for 45-50 minutes.but i can only take the class once a year.

[Zerlina]

RP. Then you won't have to ever look at the keyboard because you'll spend hours typing up posts.

[Luis]

:eek: :eek: :eek:
She's back! She's back!! :D :) :D :)

Good to see you again here :) I noticed you come everynow and then, but you don't usually post...don't you?
Now, HC hasn't come back yet...

... :(

PS: I didn't though typing without looking down would be that important XD XD I take a short look at the keyboard before typing.

It took me a month to learn to touch type.

[Hydra]

A month?

Well, it all depends on how long you've been typing in the first place. I can do it easily, but I've spent years on the computer, doing work with school and just all around playing around. XD

So, a month isn't all that bad. :)

Took me a few weeks. xD

[Kat]

^.^
took me like a week too,cuz i used to be on the computer constantly,but since i kinda cutdown on being on it,i slowed down and look at the keys more *sigh*
i lost my touch XD

[John Smith]

You Midas touch? :p

I was doing it for around an hour or two a week for around a month.

Ley mw aww qyR u CAB SAU NOW

Lol, that should read: "Let me see what I can say now" XD

My hands are so cold that I can hardly notice the size of the keyboard buttons XD

[Spec Highwind]

I'm writing thiw without looking down!

Aww... almost there :P

[Kiera]

lol I am writing without looking down its not that hard when your job is mostly this lol. Even though I know its not physical I know its something to make money off of why am I typing still lol.

[Seyluv]

I hate doing that, but I'm getting better at typing without looking.

[Kat]

i love typing tho its so fun :D

[Phoenix Flame]

Wow! :eek: <applauds>

I think that is the first time you wrote more than, "Yeah, I guess." and it was actually spelled, punctuated and grammatically correct! <At least from the posts I've seen> Amazing!

Empress...sorry if that sounds rude - I certainly don't mean it that way. I'm happy for you!


BTW: I can touch type. The last time I was tested I typed 70+ wpm and 16,000 keystrokes/hr. So meh!

I've been typing about 10 years and you get better/faster if you push yourself.

So :p Tee hee.

[John Smith]

Lol :D

[Phoenix Flame]

I'm typing as fast as I can without looking down. and trying not to make any mistakes. Total time: 20 seconds for this whole mess!@

[John Smith]

I have a new keyboard now, so I'm getting used to it (The keys are laptop-like, unlike the other keyboard I had, that have volumous keys).

[Phoenix Flame]

One black bug bled blue blood as well as another black bug bled blue.

Say ^ 5X fast.

[John Smith]

I can't ever get it right once, much less 5 times :D

that one has got my head spinning, lol

[Phoenix Flame]

LOL... I learned that as a camp song in like 4th grade. I can still say it many many times quickly w/o screwing up.

Another stupid human trick I can do is say the NA Alphabet faster backwards than I can forwards. :D
