Gameology: Commentary and Resources for the Game Studies Community

I know this was written awhile ago, but I had to respond. For awhile, I worked at a retail establishment that had touch screen monitors attached to regular PCs as it's POS system. During downtimes, we'd meander on the internet, use flickr, etc, all with this touch-screen. We stopped using the mice (for the most part) or the keyboards. When I came home from my job, I'd *always* jab my laptop's monitor, still in the mind-frame of the touch sensitive screen. The thing that struck me when watching my co-workers (and myself) with these screens, is how natural it was. Everyone picked up on it exceptionally quickly, no matter their age—18 year olds to 60 year olds all used it equally well.
