Reading devices such as the Kindle are becoming widely used and many users are now routinely reading on tablet computers. The physical form factor of these devices promotes and accommodates comfortable, natural interactions, providing some of the look and feel of their paper predecessors. However, for operations such as searching and cutting and pasting, the magic and charm of paper is lost and the user has to revert to device-centred selections and menu operations. In this paper, we introduce and explore an alternative set of approaches. In theNoteDropsystem we use hand-only gestures along with haptic and limited visual feedback. The aim is to enhance the active reading process with a focus on interactions with digital research documents. In addition to describing the concept prototype, we present the findings of an exploratory user-study that highlights the value and challenges of these new methods.
