Apple patent gesture language
Apple has filed a patent for a new multi-touch gesture language that will allows us program gestures into our computers. Similar to the zoom and rotate gestures currently programmed into the iPhone and MacBook multi-touch touchpads, the new patent describes a Sign Language for touch screens
Great for small and portable not so sure about making the transition to the main workhorse though.
A small and intensely loyal following will no doubt materialize but most of us will probably stay with mouse, keyboard, and on an adventurous day, stylus.
Credit to Apple for attempting this though, makes up in a small way from their crappy ‘at least we’re not crap like the other team’ TV advertising campaign
