Shopping earlier today, I took a break and sat down in the shopping centre to eat a hot sausage roll. Across the way was a big TV screen where a satellite TV company was advertising itself. They have this advert with a screen of icons showing what they offer then expanding the icons into previews. I watched some kid who thought this was a "touch screen presentation". He stood in front of the screen happily poking the icons on the screen. Because the advert automatically ran from icon to trailer, it took the kid a long time to realise that prodding the icons was having no effect!
