When you're reading your e-mail, surfing the web or updating your Facebook account, do you prefer the familiarity and accuracy of the mouse or the novelty and possibilities of a touchscreen?
That was the subject of our most recent Web Faceoff, our weekly series where we pit two competing apps or technologies against each other for your vote. In this edition, we asked you to choose between the touchscreen and the mouse.
And the winner...
...is the mouse! With 54.6% of the vote (830 votes), the mouse was able to squeak by the touchscreen's 45.4% (689 votes). While the cursor and keyboard interface won the day, the competitive finish by the touchscreen makes us think more people are embracing the technology. Could we be witnessing a revolution in computer interface tech?
Are we going to be using more touchscreens five years from now or will we still rely on our mice to navigate our computers? Post your predictions in the comments.
