If you use a computer or laptop, then take a look at your keyboard once. You may see a slightly raised small line or bump on the 'F' and 'J' buttons. Now think, have you ever noticed why these are there?
Often people consider them to be just a part of the keyboard's design, but in reality they have a very important purpose. These small bumps are actually a technology trick, which helps in making typing easier and faster. Actually when a typist types without looking at the keyboard, he has to guess the correct place of his fingers only by touch. This is the reason why these special markings are given on the 'F' and 'J' buttons of the keyboard.
These two small lines are very useful
These bumps tell the user where to place their index fingers (first fingers). Once these fingers are in place, the rest of the fingers are automatically set to the correct position. This is called the 'home row position', from where typing starts, A, S, D, F for the left hand and J, K, L and ; (semi-colon) for the right hand.
No need to look down again and again
The advantage of this feature is that the typist does not need to look down again and again. This also increases the typing speed and reduces the chances of mistakes. So the next time you use the keyboard, do not ignore those small lines. This is not a design, but a very thoughtful innovation, which helps you start typing at the right place every time.
