Watch That Wrist — And Those Fingers
The iPad’s ability to register Multi-Touch gestures has allowed developers to create some truly innovative applications. Unfortunately, Multi-Touch is the pits when it comes to taking hand written notes on a screen. Most of us have spent the bulk of our writing lives resting our wrists and fists on the page while we scribble away. Doing that on a multitouch tablet like the iPad can leave your notes full of bizarre scribbles, lines and other unwanted elements that are the result of the iOS mistaking your body’s other points of screen contact as data input. Some note taking programs like Penultimate offer features that disallow input from poorly placed fingers and wrists, letting you write without having to worry about your wrist accidentally bumping out any NSFW scribbles on your screen during tour of duty in your office’s conference room.
