Buttons are a Hack, Josh Clark
The document discusses designing for touch interfaces. It suggests that buttons are an outdated interface element for touchscreens and that gestures are a better approach. Gestures are likened to keyboard shortcuts. It also recommends designing for larger gestures on bigger screens. Additional tips include focusing on the experience rather than interface elements, taking inspiration from nature which provides no instructions, and providing coaching and feedback to help users learn custom gestures.
