PS: I look at the keyboard when I type.

Re: type without looking down

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.

Re: type without looking down

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.

Re: type without looking down

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.

Re: type without looking down

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.

Re: type without looking down

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. ^_^

Re: type without looking down

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.

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

She's back! She's back!!

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.
