Like playing a guitar

Derek Powazek, on Thoughts on Designing for iPad:

Gestures go beyond creating an intimate connection. They turn a computing device into an instrument. After all, you don’t use a guitar, you play it. And what’s playing a guitar besides learning a series of gestures?

Nicely put.

    A lot more than you think my friend. And please don’t compare these, it’s an insult to people actually playing guitar.
