Students and typists relieved

Are you a university student? Are you having hard time in your academic research and assignments but you just can’t get any useful or reliable resources on the web? Then you should check out the ultimate student resource list at Lifehack.org. Listed are 10 free applications, 11 online tools, 15 websites for students, 30 pieces of advice and 7 online research resources.
We are “very used” to QWERTY keyboard, aren’t we? Its alternative, Dvorak keyboard, was designed so that right hand will do most of the typing compared to the left hand. It has been noted for its efficiency in typing, resulting in less fatigue and increase of typing speed. While less popular, people who are tired of using QWERTY and AZERTY has turned into Dvorak.
As for me, I can’t really do touch-typing. I am yet to learn how to type efficiently. Apparently, I came across this online Flash keyboard at keybr.com. It’s just perfect for indicating how fast you can type using QWERTY or Dvorak layout. For Opera users, you can launch a widget called “Dvorak vs Qwerty” from your web browser. Shall we give a try on Dvorak?
