"Norm Teaches Typing" - learn that number row!

If I lived on the west coast, I would come build speakers with you.  I would love to work with a speaker manufacturer.

Not a bad idea. I was just thinking of printing it out and sticking it on the bottom of my monitor but your solution just looks nicer.

A lot of my learning touch typing on keys I don't use often is how much strain my fingers are used to. On a happy hacking, to hit the & symbol, I should be holding shift, and extend my index finger as far as it could go. That's just enough to hit &. For * it's the same thing, except I don't strain as much. Half the time, I feel like I'm not even going to hit the right key, and I do.

That said, it's still a nice piece of hardware for learning the row, especially with all the wonderful blank keycap sets Elitekeyboards has started offering

So how does this work? Do you keep it in your pocket and practice touch-typing when you have a spare moment? Doesn't it attract funny looks? :biggrin:

I should probably learn the same, have always tried-and-erred with numeric input (and only ever used the numpad for inputting symbols).

Neat idear, also if you had a short name and wanted to make a nameplate.
