1. A computer-implemented method of data transmission, comprising:
receiving a first message from a first user;
displaying a preview of a second message generated by a second user in reply to the first message;
detecting a send gesture comprising a motion of the second user;
increasing an opacity of the previewed message in proportion to the motion until reaching a minimum motion threshold at a first opacity; and
transmitting the previewed message to the first user once the minimum motion threshold is reached.
