Just googled for ‘keyboard fetish’ and came up with the review of Realforce 103UB.
While the keyboard might look nice, its still has the same layout as the regular keyboards. And the fact that the keys are blank, well, for somebody who can touch type proficiently, it’s still useful to be able to look at the keys from time to time.
I just inherited Microsoft Ergonomic 7000 keyboard and the first impression is that the keys just feel very flimsy. The Alt keys, or should I say Meta just feel odd. One little gimmick is the Back & Forward extra keys, placed just under the space bar.
I’ll drive it for a few days to see if it gets any better.
If you buy one of Thoughtbot’s t-shirts they also include great stickers with their logo in the package.
Codebase, great repository hosting service, much like Github, minus the noise, wrote about their technical history. Which is very interesting to see them being so open about. Also serves as great promotion for them.
I use them and like the service. But one thing that I noticed is their wiki setup. When you visit a sub page of your wiki as their customer, there isn’t a “logical” way to go back to the main wiki page. What I mean by that, there isn’t a link near the heading of the sub page. You have to go all the way to the menu on the right and click on the wiki link. Which kind of ruins the “flow”.
