Hi everyone. :) For a long time i had been looking for an application that would allow me to enter text easily from my PC. I could not find the one that would fully satisfy me, since some of applications require local wifi network or static ip, with others you have to keep your own server. So I decided to write my own :)
Here is the link to the application https://market.android.com/details?id=com.a10.keyboard.trial&feature=search_result
I called it WebKeyboard as it fully reflects its principle of operation. The main advantage is that you continue using your favourite keyboard. No matter what you like to use standard keyboard, better keyboard, slideit keyboard you can easily use WebKeyboard in the same time. WebKeyboard always run as a service and when text arrives you can switch to WebKeyboard in one click. You can then switch back pressing one button. So, it's really fast in my view. The speed is the key advantage. It's irritating to waste a lot of time to switch between keyboards, so i tried to make it as fast as possible.
There is a little video about the keyboard http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LknzH2YWEDQ
I would like to hear your suggestions how to improve it, any ideas are very precious and if you have one I would be very happy to hear your ideas as we could make the app better and save time for many people. :)

alexander996, I've been using your application for one day, it really helps me a lot, thank you for it. I can type text much easier.
I just have a question. There are two switch methods. The first switches to standard android keyboard when I press switch. How the second works?

hi, evge13. Thanks for the reply. :)
With the second method, keyboard selector will appear each time you press the switch button. It's not as fast as the first but should work on every phone.
