keyboard learning games

[Ernest Sjogren]

> Can anyone recommend a game designed to teach the Russian keyboard? Many thanks!

This is not a game, but it is interactive (and free).  At <http://www.alfatyping.com/> the standard Russian keyboard, not a homophonic one. is taught, as well as the QWERTY Latin keyboard.  It is a site at which you must register for anything more than an introduction.  (It seems to be harmless; I've been registered there for several months with no ill effects.)  Also, for anyone who already knows the standard Russian keyboard the site can provide good typing practice.

There are typing games/tutors advertised at many of the Internet Russian bookstores.  They may be worth investigating, but I've never tried one so cannot recommend them.
