just had a thought that scrolling on touchscreens vs mouse wheels is not really intuitive because they work in opposite directions. on a mouse you scroll down but on a touchscreen you flick upwards. maybe it's me though, i also have occasional lapses regarding water taps and tofflemires.

  1. haha interesting point. my reasoning is that the wheel is related to the scroll bar, ie it's moving downwards to reveal more of the page, whereas with the touchscreen it's like you're dragging the page itself?
