Microsoft’s JavaScript gesture API for Windows Store apps: http://j.mp/14vMNzP Delicious! We badly need this for browsers. #mobilism
@globalmoxie Also, we need standards for gestures in browsers. Too many browsers hijack common touch gestures for themselves.

@aral Right on. Web apps always run inside another app, and that app comes in all kinds of flavors with their own gesture conventions. Blech -
@globalmoxie@aral but if you want a one-size-fits-all solution, there are very few gestures that are "safe" on all platforms. -

@globalmoxie@aral pinching and double-tapping also seems to work pretty well, but most multi-touch gestures and screen edges are off-limits -
-
@globalmoxie@aral but there's a similar relationship between swipe and scrolling, so same restrictions apply (don't interfere, use locally)
