Allthough I have now learned a really bad habit of typing ; instead of '
This never used to be a problem, as I only recently (on b3ta) understood where to put apostrophes in shortened/joined words, as weirdly I was never taught this in my entire education.
I can "speel" really well, but now I have started to use ', and keep typing ; instead, I automatically type ;, then hit backspace, then type ' every single time, so it now takes me 3 button presses to type a bloody apostrophe.

i type with 3 fingers.... i dont use my left index finger for anything, just my middle one, and then on the right i type with my index and middle finger. i blame it on the stubby nature of it.
i dont look where im going, but i use the backspace key more than any
How about a little indicator of how fast we type, try out this http://labs.jphantom.com/wpm/ to tell you how fast you type.
I managed 130WPM (1 mistake).
Mine is sort of touch typing, but I look at the keys quite often, although I instantly know if I have made a mistake. Seems that my typing goes to shit when I get on EVE though, couse i seem to miss out all the punctuation and capital letters like this
Getting better though, a year of writing acoustic reports will do that to you.

pffftttt 36WPM with 13 mistakes.
Not bad considering that si the first time I have ever tried to touch type, ever!
I always look at the keys, and oddly enough I know where they are without realising it.
