| 1. Turn it upside down now! |

Then let it dry. Upside down. Then work each key individually until it's freed.
It might be okay. I've seen some horrible things dumped on keyboards, and sometimes they make it, and sometimes they don't.

| 2. Depends upon the keyboard unfortunately (and how patient you are) |

I have some that can acutually be put into a dishwasher (with the internals still inside) -- others I have to work to clean.

| 3. Pop your keys off and take a bunch of q-tips |
|
wipe up what is wet, then dampen some q-tips and clean the area. Pop your keys back on and you're good to go.
Every once in a while I pop all mine off, clean each key and the underneath part then pop everything back together and voila! Have to swear a bit at the space bar and the other ones with the metal thingys though.
