The history of touch interfaces
Via Web Directions speaker Gabriel White‘s blog “Small Surfaces“, is a detailed article of the history of touch technology in user interfaces, going back into the dark ages early 1970s, in the Economist magazine’s quarterly Technology Review. Well worth a read ahead of Web Directions, where both the iPhone and Surface will no doubt get plenty of coverage.
