Default Do you look at the keyboard when you type?

Or can you remember exactly where the letters are and you don't have to keep looking down?

Yeah, I don't usually look at the keyboard when I'm typing, unless it's to find one of those additional keys (such as ctrl/alt/delete) or shift.

Nah tend not to, can kinda see where my fingers are going out the corner of my eye anyway though and I'll sometimes look down and check if I'm correcting a spelling or something

I do both,however when I don't look,I find I often get things the wrong way round, such as typing ahve rather than have.

If in a real hurry, then I don't look and usually find I then have to edit a fair few errors later when I've more time.

Nope and it's actually weird how it's become such a norm. Never noticed that until now.

I can't type without completely looking at the keyboard although I have noticed recently that I'm getting to the stage that I can type without looking.

I just typed this sentence without looking at a single key though smiley included

No, I don't look. I was taught at school the old fashioned secretarial way with home keys and specific fingers for specific keys. They took the letters off the keys so we had to learn.
