How well can you type with your eyes closed?

**bender5** · 03-4-2008, 08:27 PM

I've noticed that over the years I've grown to devolope typing skills withgout looking/closing my eys. Now this whol OP is typed witout me looking and any errors will be left just for giggles. What I really want to know is how well can you type wiht your eyes closed FFR?

EDIT: I seem to have forgotten to give instructions. Type a few sentences that you are comfortable with, without looking at the keyboard or the screen until you send. This could be kinda fun I guess

**Flandre Scarlet** · 03-4-2008, 08:30 PM

I can type pretty well with my eyes closed, just like this post. I've had some skill habits from typing much on FFR, and keyboarding class in school helped.

I don't make too many errors as shown by the above, but usually I'll miss click the semi-colon instead of L.

**DarkbearX** · 03-4-2008, 08:32 PM

I think I type perfectly with my eyes closed, save for a few errors. I'm pretty sure I barely screw up, if ever, because I can feel my mistakes and backspace them.

^^ Typed with my eyes closed, I backspaced like two times I think.

**EnR** · 03-4-2008, 08:32 PM

Yea so I'm writting this here paragraph roflroflroflrofl.

Edit: Freghan right, nice spelling.

ddr_f4n · 03-4-2008, 08:34 PM

I can type this well. After a few years of typing experience I'm used to it abd I just type by instinxt. (lol so close)

**dandandamdandan1111** · 03-4-2008, 08:34 PM

Eyes Open: My name is Dan.

Closed: My name is Dan.

Wow, I thought that I wasn't very good at typing while not looking.

spinal_compression · 03-4-2008, 08:36 PM

I can type just as well with my eyes closed. Only problem is that I know when I screw up by feel but I can't make the connection to the backspace key and back.

**bender5** · 03-4-2008, 08:41 PM

I can correct myself, but sometimes you can't catch everything i guess

**dandandamdandan1111** · 03-4-2008, 08:45 PM

This is another try, I'm nor lookining at all. It is probab;r really incorrevt though.

EDIT: Not really that bad

**roundbox** · 03-4-2008, 08:45 PM

I can always look away and type most of the time, I usually talk to people when they're nearby, usually in computer rpogramming class, and I have a feeling I just misspelled the last word. Oh well.

**Xandertrax** · 03-4-2008, 08:46 PM

**Kekeb** · 03-4-2008, 08:51 PM

I'm pretty comfortable typing with my eyes closed, just typing regularly will help. If I'm not using my keyboard though, I usually make some mistakes :/.

**Windscarredfaith** · 03-4-2008, 08:52 PM

Lol this thread is hilarious. I'm pretty sure most people of our generation can type decently, especially considering the amount of time we spend on the Internet and using the computer in general.

Whole post eyes closed, not going to even proofread.

**SnS** · 03-4-2008, 08:55 PM

With my eyes closed, I feel the force. It wis ... Ok I ran out of ideas. I wonder if I could just get up from the computer and then sit down again, and see if I can continue to type correctly.I have treturned. I am not sure whethere I am doing any good.

Lol that was fun.
EDIT: I wasn't really sure if I was hitting the right keys when I sat back down, hahaha.

ShAiOnEi · 03-4-2008, 08:55 PM

I don't look at my keyboard when I type so it should be about the same.

devilsdeviousdancer · 03-4-2008, 09:00 PM

I have currently just finished working on a civics project (analization of political cartoons) My brother is currently playing legend of zelda twilight princess and i'm eating some cookies and cream ice cream at the moment. Don't know what else to say now so i shall stop now.

wow that was pretty bad compared to normal....I don't usually forget punctuation and the like.

I am typing with my eyes closed omg. btw +1

Edit: woot! I even got the +

**Silvuh** · 03-4-2008, 09:09 PM

I thought I'd try typing something with my eyes closed, too. Reminds me of one time in Elementary school when this kid was typing up a paper or something, but he wasn't looking, and he had placed his hands one key to the left of normal, and he ended up typing a few sentences with all the letters one to the left of what they were supposed to be. And I'm also reminded of how, like, some "Learn to Type" programs don't allow you to use the backspave button, and that really aggravates me, because I always backspace when I can feel there's something wrong with what I type. Ahaha, I'm not as good with counting the number of times I have to backsapce, though. Like I missed a comma just then, and I missed an "N" in "Something" earlier... ... Eh. Yeah, I'll read how it turns out afterward.

I'm not sure what else to say at the moment, but... I can say that it is fun knowing that I don't suck as much at typing as I used to. I used to not be able to type without looking at the keyboard.

Afterward: Haha. The only word I messed up was "backspace", and I did so twice. And a third time just then while my eyes were open.

P.S. I've kinda had to learn how to type without looking at the keyboard, now, because the keyboard is on one of those little roll-out thingies under the desk. And I hit my fingers on the underside of the desk when I play FFR. ):
