How QWERTY conquered keyboards

So the reasons behind it is, that the Switching Costs of the Keyboard are high. In earlier days typewriters have been trained on certain keyboard. If you want to introduce a new keyboard then, no one would use it, because you would need to "learn" to type on the new keyboard.

Totally useless video

Look your keyboard

This video doesn't go far enough. As many others have pointed out, there are several different standards in other countries. Regarding efficiency, if QWERTY were the fastest/most accurate, why do court stenographers use a different layout? I normally like these videos, but this one is really over simplified.

Qwerty

yeah but without QWERTY, there would be no WASD, or Q or E to be next to, or even R or F and all the other beautiful letters and quirks and gadgets for gaming.

How interesting that the history of a keyboard layout involves a good amount of principles from product design and economics!

Qwerty

been using Colemak for several years now, on a linear orthogonal keyboard. Keeps my hands healthier than typing on qwerty :) nice video!

In 1982 when I was a student I took a typing class and learned to touch type. It still is a valuable skill

MINE IS QWERTZ

Qwerty is not a reel word .is it?

Imagine that the germans for absolutely no f-in reason replaced the Y and Z keys. Just why?
