Do you use all your fingers in typing the computer keyboard?  email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 97/100. Margarit (1634)   ranked 114 out of 8,748 in computers 4 years ago

Hello friends,

Ive seen my brother typing very fast and He uses all of his fingers in his left and right hand. It is so nice to look at. I tried also using all my fingers in typing but my typing speed becomes slower than the usual that i do. It becomes hard for me to do typing for i am not use to it. I only use my 3 middle fingers of my left and right hand. sad

yes, i also use my both hands and all of my finger in typing. i get used to it to myself. you want to achieve that one too? in order to achieve that one you should practice! pratice! and practice! there are a lot of typing programs that can increase and help you type better. you want to enjoy while learning? try the typer shark game. where you can learn to position your fingers and learn to type fast! happy mylotting!

Hi redzredula,
Wow thats good, I want to improve my typing speed. Well i think i should do what you said. Where can i find that typer shark game. Is it free game online? thanks for the respond.happy


myLot reputation of 85/100. redzredula (314)   ranked 2,516 out of 8,748 in computers  4 years ago

yup, you can play it under the pop cap games. while you play you learn. didn't you this is the best type of learning? while you play, you can learn something and you can earn something. isn't this great? happy mylotting!

hi margarit

your a three finger typist. i am a touch typist meaning i use all my fingers in typing i learned it in typing master. you can download it on the internet and do the lessons. its nice to be a touch typist you can type by not looking at the keyboard but you only look at the screen. you can even type faster. my words per minute is 40 to 45 and i am still studying my typing master when i feel that i am feeling that i have a lot of errors in my typing.

enjoy and be blessed.

well yeah i use basically eight fingures to type maximum use in typing is index fingure!


myLot reputation of 97/100. Margarit (1634)   ranked 114 out of 8,748 in computers  4 years ago

Hi rocker21,
Have you ever use your thumb finger. My brother use it too. He uses it for space bar. I think your speed becomes more faster if you use all the fingers of your hand. Thanks for the respond. happy

Oh yes, Margarit, I use all of my fingers and both thumbs when I am typing on a computer keyboard. I would be so slow if I only used my three middle fingers.


myLot reputation of 97/100. Margarit (1634)   ranked 114 out of 8,748 in computers  4 years ago

Good for you transdisc, i wanted to use all my fingers in typing but my problem is when i do use all of them i become more slower.confused. i think it is a matter of practice. I need to practice first. Thanks for the respond.happy


myLot reputation of 93/100. Transdisc (18434)  4 years ago

If it works for you, then don't worry about it!

Well, yeah, I do use all of my fingers when I type. It's the only way I learned to type... when I got my computer my parents bought me typing software and I learned how to type this way immediately, and trust me, once you get it, you will type really quickly :)


myLot reputation of 97/100. Margarit (1634)   ranked 114 out of 8,748 in computers  4 years ago

Hi chikencereal,
Good thing that you are able to practice all your fingers when you started to learn how to type. I think it would be hard for me to learn it for i am use the way i do typing, I but i will try utilize all the fingers i have. Thanks for the respond.happy

Yes, I do. It's a matter of practice and I use computer a lot. I am in front of computer for 15-18 hours a day. I use in my work, at home and if I am out. I cannot live without computer. I can even type without looking at the keyboard. Even if the keyboard in desktop and laptop are different, I can easily adjust to it. Hahaha. I can type for 65 words per minute so it's one of the reasons why I can post a lot here in myLot. My friend can type for 52 words per minute using only 2 fingers. That is really amazing. I was surprised when I saw her practicing typing like that. lol


myLot reputation of 97/100. Margarit (1634)   ranked 114 out of 8,748 in computers  4 years ago

Wow, i havent spend that much time in the computer, Anyways my work doesnt require to use computer so i only use computer at home. I think i spent for 2 to 3 hours a day most of the time and the maximum time i spend here is 8 hours during rest day, i cant stay long at the computer, i always have a break for 15 minutes for every hour. thanks for the respond.happy

I am a two fingers typist but I can type really well. I don't use my left hand very often so my motor skill is not very good. Still I don't make a lot of mistakes when typing.


myLot reputation of 97/100. Margarit (1634)   ranked 114 out of 8,748 in computers  4 years ago

hi zalilame,
Good for you, i think it more faster if you use both hand. And it is also good to look at when you all the fingers in your hand. Thanks for the respond.happy

Yep, redzredula is right. The only way to type quickly is to use all your fingers. It takes a lot of practice, but after a while you get used to it. I also use my thumbs to hit the space bar. It is incredibly important on a pay-per-post website. Two finger typing is just too slow. Invest the time in practicing your typing and it will be well worth your while. Cheers. happy


myLot reputation of 97/100. Margarit (1634)   ranked 114 out of 8,748 in computers  4 years ago

Hi bayernfan,
You are right, well i guess i should practice to use all the fingers i have even i am so slow for now. constant practice can makes perfect. thanks for the respond.happy

it depends... i guess for the most part i use most of my fingers.
My left hand doesn't really move around on the keyboard but my right one does lol
and i'll type with one hand or less fingers if i am doing something.

i think i use all my fingers on my left and hand and only three or four on my right.


myLot reputation of 97/100. Margarit (1634)   ranked 114 out of 8,748 in computers  4 years ago

Same here, i dont utilize all my fingers in typing. But now i try to change the way i type. I am very now but it is worth to try for the outcome will be more better.happy
