Nope but the funny thing is because of that, I somehow developed to type with my left hand incredibly fast. Not faster than touch typing, but awfully close :)
 
Yeah, I can. It's been a while in coming but I can touch type without errors.

I took keyboarding in Jr. High, and it's just been great! Even the backspace button is pressed quickly. xD
 
I don't bothered, but I guess I can if I could be bothered, although I don't no if you'd call it touch typing, I can type most things, but ocasionally look down at the board.
 
Yes I can. I sometimes do it while looking around at my surroundings. But I do occasionally make some odd typographical errors, especially on a keyboard I'm not familiar with. I can't say I type very fast, though.
 
If you want to type a lot you do need to learn how to touch type. Everyone makes typos, and I've already made like 3 or 4 typos already just typing all of this up. But me taking the time looking down at the keys would take far more time then me going back to fix the typos.
The only time when I look/glance at the keyboard is when I'm setting myself up (I don't really have to set myself up, I just want to make sure I guess), and when I'm typing numbers, (I'm on a laptop so I don't have a keypad off to the right, but if I did I could use it without looking), as well as keys I almost never use. But other then them, I'm never looking at the keyboard.
OH! And I also look down when typing one handed (like when I'm eating or something). I have to look down because my left hand doesn't type on the right side of the keyboard, nor does my right type on the left, it's a system and if it's broken something bad happens. XD
 
Yeah, I never really look down unless I see myself making a string of mistakes. I took the class in primary school, where they put those covers over the keys and all to learn the proper positions for the hands. Well, I got my left hand down awesome, I use all the fingers and all. But with my right hand I only use my index finger and just move it around really fast without looking at the keyboard. It actually works really well, I'm a pretty fast typer. Every now and then I wish I could use all my right hand though XD
 
Yeah, sort of, almost I think. I know where all the letters but sometimes I still can't seem to type without looking down at the keyboard.
 
Yeah I can, first realized I can touch type back in junior high. XD
 
I can type very fast. About 75 words per min. My keyboarding teacher wants me to become a author but i dont want to i want to make games!

lol dude just because you can type quick dusnt mean you should be an author so dont make stuff up
also i can do it i make only a few mistakes like 1 out of every 70ish and ive only really been typing laods on my pc for about 3 years XD
