        Block-based programming environments are typically designed for
        desktop machines or mobile devices. Desktops and mobiles are generally
        designed for single users to interact with, which makes it hard for
        multiple users to collaborate effectively. In this paper we explore the
        possibilities of digital multi-touch tabletops to foster collaborative
        programming in a block-based paradigm. We note both the different
        challenges afforded in this new interaction model and the potential
        benefits unique to collaborative programming with tabletops.
