Drag and Drop

Rick Roe:

Imagine a library where you’re free to browse the stacks, but when you pull a book from the shelf it’s magically transformed into a card which says, “You’re holding one book”… until you set it down on a desk or the checkout counter, at which point it magically changes back into the book. The real world doesn’t work like that—neither should the computer.
