homepage for browser with touchscreen

Postby Jeroen on Mon May 26, 2008 8:12 pm

i use a touchscreen monitor and have had trouble navigating. The web is not touchscreen friendly. But no more.
try www.symbaloo.com (GREAT!!!)
in combination with an onscreen keyboard of course.

Your right, pretty cool. Also you could browse this with xLobbys new xLobby-Pad remote. I will be posting more details on this item in the news section over the next few days. Here is a few images. The square pad area is a mous pad.

Not disagreeing with your message... however i dont find this statement to be totally fair. If u read trough HTML-specification, ull find out that authors take very special care not to limit use of html to any specific kind of interface. On contrary they try to widen readers horizons constantly taking pretty far out examples like braille-readers and n-dimensional tables.

Touchscreen usability shortcomings are fault of implementors of most common useragents and their inability to digest the spirit of the above mentioned specification.

EDIT: In english: IMHO web itself is touchscreen friendly, but M$IE is not.

"xLobbys new xLobby-Pad remote". Now that looks interesting! More like a mouse than hard button remote I'm now using?
