Remove the battery and disconnect the power NOW, and put the Macbook
Air in front of a fan that blows a stream of air across the keyboard
and into the openings on whichever side of the device has the most
openings (network jacks, vents, whatever). <br>
<br>
Fortunately it's just water, so leaving it in front of a fan for
anywhere from 3 to 12 hours (overnight) should be sufficient to
cause it to evaporate and dry out without corrosion. The risk is
that power may have been conducted by the water to places that cause
damage to small components, but that's not highly likely, and in any
case you'll find out tomorrow when you put the battery back in and
plug in the power again.<br>
<br>
Most likely, your symptoms are going to be limited to the trackpad
and other control inputs. Trackpads in particular are sensitive to
water, but return to normal when dry. <br>
