When I was starting, my contents were all over the place, I have no focus on what particular niche to focus on. Basically, I review whatever I have and whatever is presented in front of me.

X-Bows, with its founder Dr. Wang saw that and created a very unique ergonomic keyboard that’s not so far away from a typical keyboard. A lot of…
