Comment on If you see a UI walkthrough, they blew itparent

It's situational and experience plays into intuition.

For example, I gave my mom a Microsoft Surface tablet I was lent for RT dev this weekend. It was in the classic desktop but I had a mapping webpage open in IE that responded to most touch gestures.

Because it was in the classic desktop, my mom was using her past experience and thinking of her finger as a mouse and hitting the little "+" icon to zoom in.

Not very "hyper-intuitive".
