    I type mostly nonstandard.

    - Right thumb for space
    - Right ring or middle finger for backspace
    - Either pinky for shift depending on the letter

    I do not adhere to your silly standards. I type while being suspended from the ceiling by a cable.

    Does that mean that you poke the keyboard with a stick, yell at it, and hopes that it will miraculously push its keys for you into whatever unholy message you have for us concerning our doom?

    I made this thread one time!

    I use my right thumb to space, my right middle finger to backspace and my right left ring finger to shift.

    Signature by rubah. I think.

    I use my right thumb for the most part.

    I hit space with my left thumb. I hit shift with my right pinky. Backspace is usually right middle finger, but the ring finger sneaks in there sometimes.

    It should be rather obvious that I cannot follow this standard when one thumb is always up my ass while posting.

    I always do space with the left hand if I happen to use the right I actually make more mistakes as I still hit the space with my left before continuing. I move my hand around to hit the backspace with my right ring finger. I tend to switch shift keys dependant on the key I wanna hit for I I always use the right pinkie for A the left....always.

    As for capslock I don't like that button at all I hate it in fact (on this laptop especially it's too big compared to the a key.) I tend to just hold shift with the right pinkie and compensate.

    Space: mostly right index finger, but sometimes my left thumb.

    Backspace: Middle finger, because it's the longest and reaches it before my index finger.

    Shift: Always the right one. I forget the left one exists.

    I usually use my right thumb to press the space bar and my right middle finger to press the backspace button. As for the shift button I use my left pinky finger.

    It really depends on what mood I'm in.

    I put left thumb for space, but I realize now that I only use my right thumb for space.
    Also, I use my right ring finger for backspace, and my right pinky for shift.

    Anyone and everyone who uses both thumbs for backspace is scary. :O

    Space: Right thumb
    Backspace: Right ring finger
    Shift: Left Pinky.

    My left ring finger takes over my pinky's capital letters. :o I can't really hit the right Shift key without moving my hand, so I never use it. It's also terribly difficult to use any other finger for space as my right thumb still bats away at it anyway. Wow, I just realized my left thumb moves around espcially when hitting period.
