The iPod touch has an Ambient Light Sensor at the top of the device that detects how much ambient light the environment has and adjusts the brightness of the device accordingly to make things more viewable in different lighting conditions.

What is the little dot at the top of the ipod touch not the button at the corner?

It is a light sensor. It increases or reduces the brightness of the backlight judging by the light you are in. For example, if you are outside on a bright sunny say, the brightness would increase so you could see it better. If you were to be in a pitch black room, the iPod Touch would reduce backlight so you don't waste as much battery power while you can still see the screen.
