On arriving in Scotland i picked up some maps so i could start overlaying my route.
The different map sizes allowed me to test different layouts and also gave me an idea of the canvas i was working with. I started to draw up the keyboard presses into a word document For me to reference when drawing out my keyboard tracks:
1. ‘w’ ‘w’ ‘w’ ‘.’ ‘g’ ‘o’ ‘o’ ‘g’ ‘l’ ‘e’ ‘.’ ‘c’ ‘o’ ‘m’
2. CAPS LOCKS-‘O’-CAPS LOCKS ‘b’ ‘a’ ‘n’ ENTER
3. ‘w’ ‘w’ ‘w’ ‘.’ ‘g’ ‘o’ ‘o’ ‘g’ ‘l’ ‘e’ ‘.’ ‘c’ ‘o’ ‘m’
4. CAPS LOCKS-‘O’-CAPS LOCKS ‘b’ ‘a’ ‘n’ SPACE CAPS LOCKS-‘S’-CAPS LOCKS ‘c’ ‘o’ ‘t’ ‘l’ ‘a’ ‘n’ ‘d’ ENTER
5. ‘w’ ‘w’ ‘w’ ‘.’ ‘g’ ‘o’ ‘o’ ‘g’ ‘l’ ‘e’ ‘.’ ‘c’ ‘o’ ‘m’

CTRL ‘c’ CTRL ‘v’ CAPS LOCKS-‘C’-CAPS LOCKS ‘o’ ‘n’ ‘n’ ‘e’ BACKSPACE X5 CAPS LOCKS-‘C’-CAPS LOCKS ‘o’ ‘n’ ‘n’ ‘e’ ‘l’ ENTER
Here is the keyboard layout i drew in order for me to create the maps. It is a replica of my computer keyboard, I later drew ponts in within the buttons from which i would connect the lines. this is similar sort of thing to a grid reference of a map.
I drew the maps out by hand because it is an old fashioned method of map creation. plus it also allowed me to lay them out and compare them. For phrases which where typed multiple times such as http://www.google.com/ i only drew one map as this was sufficient.
I layed out the mapps acoording to the key connection, as google was the main point of call when trying to find the information needed all the keywords whent through that site.
When overlayed all the maps together and came up with the image below. it almost gives off a diamond shape which is quite interesting The structured format of the keyboard gives the map its patterns and you can see the regularly pressed keys such as the "caps locks" and the "space bar"
In order to vizualise which keys were used the most i created a digital representation, the pixel size of the circles is a proportional model of how many times the buttons were used. The larger circles are over "O", "BACKSPACE" and "CAPS LOCKS" regular formatting buttons.
