Easiest way to type backwards May 16, 2007

I am not sure whether this serves any useful purpose other than having some fun, but there is an easy way to type backwards. The method occurred to me during an IM session with one of my friends. The technique is quite simple - spell your words as usual, but type one character at a time, and follow up each character with the back arrow. The method may be slow, but you don’t have to spell out the words backwards before typing.

Made an interesting discovery through my blog dashboard today. Google seems to understand backwards typing. Just look at the title bar for the query “.nuf si sdrawkcab“

KLINGON to ENGLISH (hehehehe)

couldnt believe that i could actually understand what i was reading. The phenomenal power of human mind, according to research at cambridge university it doesmd matter what order the words are in, the only important thing is that the first and last letter be in the wright place. the rest can be a total mess and you can still read it without a problem. This is because the human mind does not read everyletter by its self but the word as a whole. Amazing huh? Yeah and i have always thought sleeping was important. If you can read this repost it. ONLY REPOST IF YOU CAN READ THIS CHANGE THE NUMBER AT THE TOP THOUGH.
