Multi-Touch Gesture Engine

One of the cool things about Silverlight 3 is the new multi-touch support. From a UX stand point this is just awesome to provide this kind of functionality. I know this guy Andrew that works at Identitymine that wrote a gesture engine for Surface that is just awesome. He was showing me this on his tablet at MIX at one of the many dinners. Its just amazing in part as he is just a supper genious :) really but also the kind of UX this provides for Windows 7 apps and more is just amazing. anyway check out the press release :
