The Importance of Interface Language: Clicks, Taps, and Buttons (nearthespeedoflight.com)

It's a constant source of amusement to me as an iOS developer when colleagues refer to "clicking" on buttons. I even had one boss who even, in all seriousness, asked me to add a tooltip to a button in the iOS app I was writing for him.

I think that if you care about your interface, the nomenclature you internalize matters.
