I can type relatively fast but I have to look at the keyboard while typing which is not good when playing games etc...

I was just wondering if you guys type without looking and if so how many?

Btw any tips on improving my typing skills are appreciated.

EDIT: Currently using FreeTypingGame.net and its helping alot. Will post updates as I improve!​
 
I used an ancient program called "All The Right Type" in elementary school, it was part of lessons but I also used it when I was bored in computer class. From that and along with frequent use of the computer, I was able to type 100+ words per minute without looking by 7th grade. As of now I'd say I maintain an average of 70-80 wpm, not sure why but I've slowed down a bit. I can type really fast if I'm focusing though.
 
Yep :). Have been able to since Grade 5, ever since we had "Typing Lessons," ^_^
Try out a program, search on Google. :)
 
Havent been looking at the keyboard for over 3/4 years now, just play games like Rs while pking, see how much it helps it you.
 
I've learnt to type without looking from runescape :D those times spent in world 2 trying to buy/sell my shit :D have kinda payed off i suppose, it came in really handy through my school years not only being able to touch type but to do it quickly aswell :D although, i do get afew typos :D
 
Yeah I type without looking, I can watch tv whilst doing it but that's generally from using the computer a lot :)

I can clock up about 90wpm. All credit goes to oldschool World 2 merching :p
 
Yeah I can do 90-ish, earlier when I had a computer class my teacher would get pissed because I'd always be done before everyone else lol.
All thanks to Runescape.

Sometimes I type but I look at my keyboard to make NO mistakes, it's as if a guitar player was looking when he played but he already knew the notes perfectly.
(That's how I see it when I type and look)

That's actually quite accurate now that I think about it.
 
never had typing lessons
generally look at keyboard while typing but i can do it either way
funny thing is that i can type just as fast with my index and middle fingers as some do with all fingers

I can type without looking, and usually I do.

However sometimes I just prefer to look at the keyboard every now and then to know where the trick keystrokes are such as * & ' _ = # you get the point.
 
I'm around 120 WPM

Oh and I looks sometimes and sometimes I don't.
