UNPLUG IT, FAST!

Dry thoroughly before using again.

I think you're safe, i once spilled lemonade wich i had to remove with water afterwards cause all the keys got stuck when pressing them.
Then again... i didn't had a fancy keyboard with led lights underneath at the time, those are a bit more sensitive ^^

Use a hair dryer on it

sun dry it

This is why I prefer the 'oldschool' mechanical keyboards...

Lick it till is dry :3 ... i'm joking , use a hair dryer

If all else fails, use fire!

"Water"

Actually did the same thing last week, it stopped working right after I spilled the water on it so I unplugged it got as much water out of it as I could and set it aside to dry out in front of a fan, worked fine the next day.

use lava to dry it

View attached image.

At least with a USB keyboard I don't think a short circuit will fry your motherboard! I managed to do that once by spilling Coke on a PS/2 (or was it AT?? - I'm old) keyboard a long time ago...

blow until dry. you're welcome.

Dumbass ... your computer desk should be like a temple ... NO smoking, eating, drinking or "masterbaiting". You deserved it ... infidel !!! :]

i once spilled lemonade on my keyboard, and let it dry normally, next day found so many ants that were in and out of my keyboard. had to clean it with water.

I spilled stuff into my keyboard two times now. Unplugged it, opened it up and spent a lot of time with my sister's hairdryer and it's now working again. I pretty much don't learn from my mistakes so at least now I know how to fix my next spill :-P

If it's a laptop you are screwed if you spilled too much water. It's create stains on the inside and it's just about impossible to clean even if pop the keys out. All you can do is dry it with a fan or blow dryer from the outside. The problem of the water stain and etc will remain and who knows when it will break down. Damage is already done.

If it's a Fancy LED/Wireless keyboard you need to unplug it place is upside down and let it natural dry. It's got much more electric componets but it's much well protected from water damage.

If it's an old school plastic keyboard. you can unscrew the back. take the plastic inside out. Use a paper towel clean everything. (you can even use a bit extra water to wash tough stain but do it gentlely.) Then let it fan dry and put everything back together. Do not damage the metal marking(circuit). Do not touch the eletronic part and don't let water get into those.

Welcome to the club. You are lucky it is only water.

It only a water. Also now you have good excuse to open it and clean it. After, just use some rice to extract extra humidity and it should be good as new.

I prefer to spill coffee in mine. When it gets sticky then I bother taking it apart and cleaning. Then I find all the ash and crumbs i need to clean out as well.
Really there is little chance of damage as there is usually a protective membrane covering the switches, Those switches are also in the form of 2 pieces plastic film that, generally, water will run over and downwards, rather than between and into the electronic circuits. The bottom is not exactly sealed either, so if enough fluid enters to flow, it flows out, The small circuit board with the electronic components is towards the top, and mostly out of the way of common spills. Also bear in mind, this is only a 5V device, water does connect, but not that good :)
All said and done, you can do small spills, but don't go drowning it :)

I spilled water on mine. Seems fine now, only problem is that my key press led blinks all the time.

Man, that would be an awesome catchphrase to say before a massive drop in a dubstep track.
