The pinch zoom is a perfect example of a surprising UI that most people love. When someone sees a two fingered pinch zoom for the first time they go wow, that's awesome. Surprising isn't always bad.
- jonnytran 17y agoI wouldn't necessarily call "pinch zoom" surprising, though, b/c the first thing I thought after seeing it was, _this is so intuitive -- i.e. unsurprising -- you never have to show anyone twice_. The wow-factor is less surprise, and more delight.
