Intuitivity, iPodability, fuzziability etc. etc.

Yesterday I saw the TED podcast of JeffHan's www.youtube.com/watch?v=zwGAKUForhM intuitive computer interface. Today I came across a new free (so far) brainstorming tool www.bubbl.us real cool...intuitive..just like a person laden with thoughts would like to do...not to be bothered by 'dragging and droppings' but flowing ideas..just keep writing....This is in the aftermath/backdrop of launch of iPhone...moving two fingers over the screen to enlarge a picture. 'Click' is about to die, the way 'dialling' died after the invent of modern telephones...Key-board manufacturers need to worry?

I have some lingering doubts in my mind i.e. touching the object, that you see...the same screen where you see your photo or information...touching with fingers may have some cognitive mismatch....And isn;t it funny that western world prefers not to touch the food (use spoon) but when it comes to touch dead-materials i.e. monitors they want to use fingers...more and more products would join the bandwagon of using intuitive interface ....too much use of fingers over the life-less material would cause numbing sensation too soon...
