List of Touch UI gestures
Just now, I'm trying to improve the UI for the Factory's first iPhone app. While doing this, I've come up with a list of available areas and gestures in a touch-driven app that you can use for actions. I thought I'd put them here so other people could point out where I've gone wrong and what I've forgotten:
- Menus
- Permanent on-screen menu
- Transient on-screen menu (requires trigger)
- Different screen menu (any number of them, requires trigger)
- Static (can be overloaded with function based on position)
- Single-tap
- Single-tap 1 touch
- Single-tap 2 touches
- Single-tap 3 touches
- Double-tap
- Double-tap 1 touch
- Double-tap 2 touches
- Double-tap 3 touches
- Touch and Hold
- Touch and Hold 1 touch
- Touch and Hold 2 touches
- Touch and Hold 3 touches

Scene and Herd archive
Continuing the webcomic theme from yesterday, I finally uploaded the archive of strips from the webcomic I used to do in 2003.
It actually started off as a cartoon on flyers advertising Baby Tiger gigs before developing into music reviews for a while before ending up in the final version.
Start at the far end of the cartoon department, third floor.

Rules: The Comic
I found some old sketches at the weekend and decided that I shouldn't just leave them in a drawer doing nothing.
I, therefore, present to you:
It's kind of a web comic but it only has 19 issues, no plot and won't be continuing.

The Shadow Government and a Hyperbagel
I listen to a bunch of podcasts. I watch the Daily Show and the Colbert Report. I listen to a lot of They Might Be Giants. When you combine this with the audiobooks I listen to, the shows I go to and the paper books I read, you start to spot a pattern. A slightly sinister pattern...
This originally started as a connectivity diagram of American Literary Non-fictionists but after I'd finished I realised it's not entirely American, it's not entirely non-fictionists. It's not entirely comedy and not entirely literary. After showing it to a friend though, he immediately suggested 'The New Illuminati' or possibly the Literary Illuminati. Maybe just the Illiternati. Any way round you have it, John Hodgman appears to be as some kind of Literpope in the middle of a literspiracy.
From what I can figure, I need to write some world economics exposé with Planet Money, discuss the software I used to analyse the markets with This Week in Tech and appear onstage at The Moth to tell the audience how the experience changed my life then I can join the dots on the diagram and reveal the secret Iliternati symbol. I think it'll be somewhere between the CND logo and a hyperbagel.
