It really helps to type slower to make sure I'm doing it right though.

*eyes open*
Hah, that was pretty good.


YUeah, I take it slower than usual when my eyes are closed, just so that I can be absolutely sute my fingers are going to the right places.

I can type fairly decently with this. I think I just made a typo or two, though. Damnh. It's not too hard, I just imagine a keyboard and my fingers on it. dqammit, I was odd... adn this is giving me a headache x+x

...I didn't typo until after I thought I had. lawl.

"odd" was supposed to be "off"

Okay, I'll do it. But it won't look any different from usual. In fact, it may look cleaner, as I generally am sloppier when my eyes are open. I have no clue why, but maybe my eyes throw off my touch-typing. Meh.

...Yeah, that was flawless, as I expected.

Yep, I can type with my eyes closed too, just like I've bene typing without looking at the keyboard since years But I'm not quite as good at never making pyois, so I'm sure this willl have quite a fe, although I wouldn't be alone anyway

I never had typing lasses either, just a dozen years of typing does that



... funny that I've typo'ed "typos", of all things (but almost perfect for the rest)

This is easy. It's not too difficult to type with your eyes closed when it's 20 minutes after you woke up and your eyes are still half closed anyway.

Maybe i should have some caffeine or some breakfast. Or maybe I'll just go back to sleep. Who cares.

Also, lol why did I have caps lock on?

| it kind of feels weird because after a little bit yoi lose your sense of where your finders are.

where yoi = you,finders = fingers.

Wow, awesome! I didn't expected to come out so well.
I actually am a very accurate typer (using home row/etc.), though this depends on whether or not I'm tired or annoyed, or if I can't be arsed to fix it.

I'm going to give this another try because I somehow get the feeling that I type even worse when wide awake than i do when i'm barely conscious. Hey nobody said anything about not using the backspace key with your eyes closed, right?

Half the time I type an entire paragraph for school without looking at the keyboard, then look at the screen afterward and find my finters get misaligned and that my entire paragraph is givverish. But I got lucky with this one, it came out pretty good.

I usually look at the screen while typing, so I still see typos pretty fast ... well, except right now of course since I'm typing with my eyes closed

It also took years (10 or close) until I could really type without looking at the keyboard

... now a bigger challenge would be to do this with the keyboard turned around, or even just a different keyboard


(nice, no typos this time )

WEll, this is exciting...

Kind of reminds me of the "broken backspace" thread.

Edit: apparently the only typo I made was due to my tendency to not release shift soon enough...

It only took me around 3 or 4 years before I memorized the keyboard layout. After I started making accounts on forums and stuff, it only took me about 6 months before my typing speed god really good. Someone should start a thread about typing speeds, or something.

Woo, all of my posts so far in this thread have been typed with my my eyes closed. I hope now that I've brought up this fact I won't jinx it or anything!

( *Kyargu opens eyes

"my my". For shame. )
