When working on mobile web apps, you may have experienced that browsers have differences in their gesture APIs.

DeepTissue.js is a library that removes such differences (of MSPointer, WebKit Touch and mouse pointer APIs) and provides a cross-browser gesture handling library.

It has support for all the major events like tap, double tap, tap and hold, rotate, scale or swipe.

The library is standalone but a jQuery-friendly version is also under development.

GestureWorks, a multitouch framework for Flash and Flex, is sharing a beautiful set of free gesture icons.

The set includes ~200 icons and comes in different formats (.PNG, .EPS, .PDF) with different download packs (every item being an individual file or as a poster).

Items are presented under 2 main categories:

• Multitouch gestures
• Stroke gestures

and each of them has sub-titles like: tap gestures, rotate gestures, number strokes, etc.

A very handy resource for anyone designing/developing mobile applications (and for anyone documenting them).

Gesturecons is a set of 50 vector gesture icons which is specially designed to be used with projects related to multi-touch interfaces.

However, they can also be used inside any application to demonstrate to users how to complete actions or prompt them to interact with an application when they approach it

They come with .PDF, .AI, & .EPS file types which is great for editing or creating derivatives of the icons provided.
