All fingers and thumbs, I've always been a touch typist. My Husband says i'm too quick for him to watch what i'm doing.

I don't tend to leave caps lock on but even closely watching what I'm doing I still make massive spelling mistakes, my autocorrect goes into overdrive

Re: How Many Fingers Do You Use?

It's a strange thing that back in the seventies I used an old typewriter for quotes and invoices, then I moved on to an electric typewriter, through to word processor, then PC and now PC and tablet, yet in all of that time I have never progressed to more than typing with two fingers whilst looking at the keyboard, and it's a complete mystery to me how it can possibly be done any other way....

Same here Barry.

I'm pretty fast now with two fingers (one on each hand) but like you, I have to look at the keys and it often goes wrong.
