It's pretty easy for me to type without looking at the keyboard, usually only look down when I'm doing a shift+number, otherwise I know where everything is and if I don't, I just rely on the relativity of the placement to whatever I typed.

I used to be terrible at typing, but then all my friends who live by my house moved away and I had to start using the internet to connect to people.

I had computer class, it didn't do jack shit. I typed 30wpm. They don't let you correct mistakes, which is completely unrealistic.

It's still a pretty new concept anyways, lots of urban areas don't have mandatory computer class (especially in grade school where it really matters.

Aha, but you don't use proper grammar.
I started computer class in first grade. Didn't do much for me. All it did was show me where the keys were, really. Then I started typing at home, and that's what did it. Key to speedy typing. Got to learn the finger movements. Typing class doesn't do that for you, I mean in mine all we typed was stuff like "aaabbbcccdddeeefffggg" you get it. Useless.

It's actually quite easy, Heck give me a blindfold and put out the lights and i can still type without looking at the keyboard, I've been doing it for years now...

i took the computer classes in middle school just cause they were easy after i learned to type 75wpm+ in the first course. i can type without looking at the keyboard just out of remembering where the keys are, i hate using my pinky though.

i rarely look down.

They don't have "computer class" in Sweden. And Moat, how come you call yourself a spelling freak when you spell your own name incorrectly?

I don't know, honestly. I didn't spell it wrong, it was a typo. Everything else is okay, I use apostrophes and stuff.

It comes from just using the computer a lot.

Ah, I know. Everyone makes mistakes. Although, I usually check things before I submit them, especially my name.
