If anyone has a writeup/previous discussion on here of this kind of thing, I'd love to see it. But essentially I was thinking about this kind of thing Of course Bret demo'd Stop Drawing Dead Fish and, I think, Drawing Dynamic visualizations on touchscreens. I think a stylus is a good addition to that. It's slightly unpleasant to put one's finger on a touchscreen, and to try to do very precise manipulations of potentially pixel-sized things below it using one's relatively fat fingers. Multitouch is nice in theory, but genuinely, aside from pinch-to-zoom/rotate, I know of nothing else good that uses it

we have a long running thread about programmable ink at ink&switch, with recent publication here: http://inkandswitch.com/crosscut/ -- I'd be up to connect and chat some more if that's interesting/relevant

Thanks, I read a lot of this page when you put it out but I didn't recall that it was intended for multitouch tablets
