Feel the Keys on your Computer Keyboard

Posted on | January 16, 2008 |

Yeah…strange eh? But seriously now…how do they feel? These keys are your friends you touch daily probably, and for some more than others, for the better part of the day.

We use these little suckers mindlessly to communicate our thoughts, respond to others, and complete our work. We seldom ever even look at them, but they are vital to how we communicate on this here web thingy.

Do this sensory exercise:
Put your fingers on your keyboard on home row.

Are they smooth? Rough?
Are they flat or do they curve?
Feel the bumps under your index fingers (keys “F” and “J”)
What else do you notice?
