Learning the Norman Layout 4 months

July 14, 2019

About 4 months after changing the typing layout to Norman. I think I will type with Norman last a long time (unless I’m interesting w/ another one).

I forgot QWERTY #

Typing bopomofo (Chinese typing, and it’s interesting story is another challenge on ErgoDox, so first, I flash my ErgoDox’s firmware to use Norman, then I can still type bopomofo on my laptop’s keyboard. I will have some time will type with QWERTY. I can change both layout in minutes on that time.

My shoulder #

One day I’m looking for a split keyboard try to make my shoulder feel better at work.

I need to keep the round shoulder posture almost all day. Make my body curl and back pain sometimes.

What I found is ErgoDox EZ, and received my new keyboard after 10 days.
