With the advent of the iPhone and Android, more and more mobile with touch screens are hitting the market. In spite of superficial similarities, designing an app for a touch based interface is very different from designing an app for a keypad/keyboard/stylus/mouse based interface. Just porting an older app to the touch with minimal design changes is a recipe for disaster.
This talk covers:
1. Why touch is so important?
2. The advantages of Touch
3. The disadvantages of Touch
4. What you should do
(Talk given at IndicThreads conference on mobile application development - 2010).

Projecting an absolute ignorance onto others, a characteristic of the ideology of oppression, negates education and knowledge as processes of inquiry.
