1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:

  • receiving, at a computing device, an indication of a first touch gesture;

    associating the first touch gesture with a first action;

    receiving, at the computing device, an indication of a second touch gesture;

    determining, in response to determining that a shape of the second touch gesture corresponds to a shape of the first touch gesture, a difference in rotational orientation between the shape of the second touch gesture and the shape of the first touch gesture; and

    initiating, in response to determining the difference in rotational orientation between the shape of the second touch gesture and the shape of the first touch gesture, a second action that varies from the first action based on the difference in rotational orientation.
