My love affair with touch screens is over. What a coincidence.
- JetSpiegel 13y agoMine has never begun. I don't feel lonely, though. I have a keyboard.
- BlackDeath3 13y agoI have to agree with that. We pretty much all grew up before touchscreens were widely available as they are now, and as such I think the allure of them was in their novelty. The more I use touchscreens, the more I realize how inefficient and inconsistent they tend to be (at least, the ones I've used).
- freehunter 13y agoI feel the opposite. Whenever I'm using a computer without a touch screen and the screen is close enough to touch (or in a convenient location to touch), I have to fight instinct to touch the screen. Sometimes it's just easier (for me at least) to jab your finger at the thing you want to click on than it is to move the mouse to it.
- BlackDeath3 13y agoI think it's really context-sensitive. Some things work best with a touchscreen, I suppose. I do know one thing - I'd probably rather beat myself to death with a tablet than try to program (or type anything at all, for that matter) on it.
- coldtea 13y agoWell, aside from tablets and phones, touch screens are useless. You're not gonna hold your hand straight in the air for more than a 10 minute stretch.
