What is a multi gesture touchpad?
Multi-gesture refers to using more than one point on the touchpad simultaneously to enable macros.
In plain language, it is simply the ability to use more than one finger (multi-touch) to access certain computer features or do certain things (gestures). Lets say you use your thumb and forefinger to "pinch" the touchpad, the computer may then minimize a window or zoom out, depending on how the gesture is setup. On a MacBook, three fingers swiped across the touchpad from left-to-right or right-to-left makes the browser go "forward" or "back" a screen.
Multi-touch has become popular in Apple products, like the MacBooks and iPods/iPhones, but more and more PC touchpad drivers are being released to update current equipment to recognize multi-touch. More than likely, multi-touch screens and touchpads will be the norm on all computer equipment in the near future.
What are the uses of a touchpad?
There are a number of advantages from using a touchpad. The first one is that you don't have to carry a mouse with you. There are also some multi-touch and gestures you can do with touchpads that you can't with a regular mouse.

Why won't words stay highlighted when i click 'n drag with mouse?
Found the answer to my own question. It looks as though the VX Nano mouse from logitech is prone to the left click wearing out. Theres a youtube video showing how to replace the part which you can find in any mouse but it requires soldering and de-soldering so its do-able but not a super easy.
Its sad because this was their top of the line model and retailed around $70 and now they are discontinued and replaced them with the Marathon M705 $4. Sucks for logitech! Good for me cause they are $18 on eBay now and even if it won't last 2+ years its worth it. I bought my vx nano second hand and have been using it for 1 1/2 years so who knows how long this issue takes to develop.
While researching the issue I called logitech and their over-seas customer service guy had no idea why "words wouldn't stay highlighted." He had me hold the left click down and then right click 5 times. When that didn't work he didn't know what to do. I let him know it wasn't a big deal (more a pet peeve) and I was just calling to see if hes heard of the issue. I happily hung up thinking I would just use the shift key as the work around. After I found the help forums on Logitech I learned these mice have a three year warranty! I thought maybe I still had a warranty and I could send it in for repair.
Long story short..I unexpectedly called logitech to see if I had any warranty left. Now this is speculation but because the customer service rep was American and he said he was having a crap day he replaced my mouse with the M705 for free and I didn't have to ship him back anything either! I suspect he wanted to do something nice and this wasn't the protocol for VX Nano issues but I could be wrong.
I'm stilll using my nano and just using shift to highlight cause the M705 is a bit big for my small hands. Still it is great to have a backup/replacement when this ones completely dead. Also good to see Logitech customer service step up to the plate.
That's my story and I'm stickin to it.
