Touch Content Creation — Cocoa Therapy
Beginners will instead just backspace through perfectly good text to get to a typo, until they learn the magic of the left arrow key: it’s like a backspace that doesn’t delete! This is not to reiterate the “iPad is for young/old/dumb people” cliché, rather to point out that keyboard-based text manipulation is not a natural interface, that we should consider the idea that there might be alternate interfaces for text editing, that function and meta keys that have popped up over the decades are barnacles on the “content keys” rock. http://duncanwilcox.com/2010/touch-content-creation/
