Stuck in an internet cafe with an entirely different language set on the keyboard? You could frustratingly navigate your fingers along the foreign keys, tapping cautiously, and lashing out when you realize you just spelled an indecipherable word.
Or you could use this handy Virtual Keyboard from Gate2Home.com
This site enables you to write in your language wherever you are in the world, with an online onscreen keyboard emulator. All you do is select your own language, and a familiar keyboard pops up onscreen for you to start typing your message.
After your done, you just highlight the text box and paste it in an email, blog entry, message home, or whatever. Fantastic.

Yeah I always seem to get email from traveling friends in disjointed english — puncutated by the occasional “damn, i hate this keyboard layout!” so definitely, this virtual version was a good score.

I could have done with that in Rome,actually. For some reason, all the keyboards at internet cafes there didn’t have a ‘#’ key (or not one I could find anyway).
Not something one generally uses in a mail, perhaps, but as it was part of one of my mail passwords, it made logging in a little tricky.
No doubt this virtual keyboard would have been useful for that!
