Are you talking about the iPhone?? That's not a virtual keyboard. Your finger knows when it's touching the screen. Also, tapping on designate target and freeform drawing are two very different things
There's no possible such affordance in virtual space. You're literally writing in air.

- coldtea 8y ago>Are you talking about the iPhone?? That's not a virtual keyboard. Your finger knows when it's touching the screen But it doesn't feel that it's hitting a button (because the button it's virtual), and people then had made this point repeatedly (e.g. in favor of Blackberry).
- qu4z-2 8y agoI would've made that argument then, and it's the reason I have a Blackberry today. It's just straight up not as good, in my opinion. But yes, people in general seem to be fine with it. I just wanted to push back against the idea that "Well, everyone said it would be bad and then it was fine.". The people who thought it was awful in many cases probably still do, they're just quieter about it 'cause it's a lost cause.
