Pretty much anyone who's taken any typing classes in school can at least make an attempt at doing this. The only reason I opened my eyes during this was to find the post button.

This should be a game, people have to continue a conversation without looking at sht screen or keyboard.
I did well considering I make mistakes when I'm looking.

i never look at my hands when typing, i haven't for many years, tho i do look at numbers and the stuff above the numbers but that's about it
Man I am so awesome at blind typing let me tell you. There was this one time wehre I typwed blind (it was now) and I rocked so much because I go like nearly no errors and stuff.
Meh, I think I did well enough yp there. And I can't currently see how I'm doing down here because my etes are shut and everything.

Blind typing isn't really a big deal for me. I hope I don't mess up though, or I'll sound like an idiot.
WOOT! I did it!

Alright, here's blind typing! I'm not looking at the screen! Seriously!
Yeah, I'm pretty good at typing. I prefer to look at the screen though. I guess it's more ergonomic or something.

I don't know one day I was typing a paper and realized I didn't need to look at the screen. hard for me to keep a consistent train of thought with my eyes closed though sometimes yes I think so.
edit: One should get bonus points for hitting tab, tab, enter at the end of their wall of blind text. I didn't do this, but I'm just saying.

To be perfectly honest, it's as much a matter of remembering the particular muscle movements for a word as it is remembering the layout of your keyboard. Touch typists do this all the time, and it can get quite interesting after a while.
On that note, weeble weeble schlup. Yep. Still correct.

well my blind typing skills suck so much that i don't even want to show them here but i can type very fast whilst im looking at the screen and i have QWERTY configured keyboard on my pc but my keyboard is as alphabetic so im actualy always blind typing sort of in a way
(i did not blind type this as i have already said because even i wouldn't know what is would say)

Heh, you really had to challenge me at my own game, haven't you? I blind-write a lot of times, mainly to get writer's block out of my system but sometimes to just put all of my ideas out on paper. I'm actually blind-writing right now,, if you want to believe it. The thing that usually messes me up most is recalling where I was after I accidentally delete soemthing that i know is a mistake. It's not as though I'm that great at it, but like I said, I have a lot of practice with it. Unfortunately, this only really applies to Western keyboards. I suck at dvorak and azerty layout, but I supposed that's to be expected (since I don't really have that much training with those keyboards). It'ss a fun tool, especially when you're trying to concentrate on something else: (like checking out that cute blond talking on the phone or watching to make sure your friend doesn't steal your food), but for the most part I like to put a blindfold over my face and just concentrate on images that i'm trying to write up. I've used it a couple of times in academic writing, but usually not too much: having too many spelling errors usually makes it so that I lose a point (or several, depending on how bad it is). Some of the toughest habits to break (as you might have already seen), are reversing letters due to typing too fast, but it's still usually not too bad.
Sorry if I rambled a bit, I usually use this (like I said before), for stream-of-consciousness writing, so I tend not to measure my words very carefully.

blind typing I can do I know where all the keys are.
but some times yjid js[[rnd (this happens) mainly I have my fingers one key to the left or right of center and I get gobeldy gook and the obvious dyslexic spelling errors.
