Encoding long manuscripts can be a really daunting task, especially for those who are not touch typists. Of course, over time, we will be able to master the keyboard, but that will include painful weeks ahead for your neck. I should know, I passed through the same ordeal. To reduce the pain a little bit, we buy copy writers--but do they really reduce the pain? Or are we just wasting money?
Part of the reason why we buy these copy holders is to make sure that we don't have to make our heads go up and down from the computer monitor. Quite unfortunately, these same copy holders just make you the same thing and serve no real purpose aside from being a dignified clip board.
Lo and behold, someone was intelligent enough to produce a copy writer that you can actually attach to your desktop's or laptop's monitor. It is the Fellowes Swivel Clip Copyholder. As you can see from the image included in this article, the copy holder can be comfortably attached beside your monitor. Just level with your eyesight. This will ensure that head turning is minimized. Thus, neck pain is minimized.
Say goodbye to those days of intense up-down neck movements. With this copy holder, reading what you will encode is a little movement away. (Note that this is assumung that you are a touch typist or, at least, that you somewhat memorize the layout of the computer keyboard. Otherwise, you will just find yourself doing the same thing--head up and down--but this time you will be looking at the keyboard! Now, the copy holder cannot do anything about that.
All UPSable
