What's Buzzing Friends...

Show of hands, who is a content author here? We would bet most of your hands would go up, or better yet, we can ask who here types on a keyboard? We think a lot of hands would go up.

On average, the standard PC keyboard has a whooping 104 keys for you to deal with. Along with this the average student can type 30 to 40 WPM( Words Per Minute) (Source). That's all well and good, but then you have the Chinese language. With more characters in their language than most Latin based (about 7000 characters Source), before computers the average typewriter in China had 2,500 commonly used Chinese characters arranged in a grid, in which the author would select and move characters into the place to type the words they wished, further the keys were all movable so there is no fixed layout.

OMG, talk about a crazy experience. You come into work on Monday, and your 2,500 letters are rearranged. That's like 2 cups of coffee before tackling it.

If you wish to read more about the Chinese keyboard here is an interesting article LINK.

Next time when you are looking at your letters wondering what type, remember our friends in the Far East who had to deal with many more letters. Speaking of letters, the D.Buzz weekly recap has a bunch we just typed!... Let's get to it!

Now that's a lot of letters, however you made it to the end! WOOT!.
