I can actually touch type I look at the screen whilst I type, which is such a talent to have! I got my RSA Typing Stage I at college and I got a distinction for it. Being a male it is unusual and I even went on to being a secretary! I love typing and I can knock out a letter in minutes. Very handy on Mylot!

Thanks, Wolfie. I touch type too and I worked as administrative assistant in a bank. I have retired so it's a pity my typing skill is now only used in myLot.

My fingers fly across the keyboard. lol Anyone that sees me type is amazed by how fast I type. lol I don't look at the keys usually unless its a weird letter like a Q or Z sometimes...or whatever that I don't use often, but even then I don't always look.

Hi,
I'm sorry if the discussion was posted before; I simply create discussions that come into mind spontaneously. Sometimes duplications are unavoidable. I only discover similar discussions later when the replies come. Still I'm glad to see comments. Thanks.

I never know the answer to this,lol..I never pay attention to what I'm doing so I may be looking I might not be, but when someone asks me what I do, I immediately start looking and can't recall what I was doing beforehand.

I use the touch system. I had to learn that when I was in school and it's the only thing from school that I actually put to use too.

Well I look to line up and then let the words in my head flow through my fingers as I watch what it is that I am typing. Took a bit of typing class in highschool. Had a couple of jobs where I needed to type. And of course all that I do on the internet require me to type.

I use all my fingers as I was taught to do at school. However, that was a very long time ago. I try type without looking at the keyboard but then I have to go back and correct all the mistakes. Hopefully I will get better in time.

I had once need to watch on the keyboard when I first use computer and luckily thats a history for me now:) I think lots of peoples can type without a look on keyboard as they are getting more and more chances to type especially when you actively participates in forums like mylot that need lots of typing.

I belive I am very fast. Think I use most fingers while typing. Actually never thought about it.
Although I work with computers all days long so i guess it is only natural!
