Do you type blind( or do you look at the keyboard?)?

I can, but I don't. I just find it easier to type while looking down.

I type blind, and have been for years. Only thing that really throws me off are the number keys, and that's just because I never use them.

Exactly my case, I myself always type without looking at the keyboard and really fast too, so there . But then again, the Number keys really throw me off... Hmm an interesting point to note would be that I can type blind and extremely fast on my own PC's and their keyboards, but when I have to use a new keyboard it takes me around 20-30 minutes to get used to it, that is, so I can type blind on them...

Sadly, no.
I have to be able to look at the keyboard- otherwise, I DIE.

I can type blindly. I thought it didn't help a whole lot, so I always looked. That was back in about 6th grade. I could type about 40 wpm looking. Then I devoted myself to be able to type without looking and am now about 100 wpm.

Oddly enough that's how I am as well. I use all my fingers on my left hand correctly, but on my right hand I predominantly only use my pointer and middle fingers. I've never quite understood why I learned to type like that.

yeah, it is weird, I realized that a couple of days before this thread started. though I tried practising for normal typing but I can't right now, I've already learned it like this, but I'll try going to ormal typing that is if I have time and aren't doing a thing called homwork, lol.
