IOGraph

My dear friend Paul, alerted to me IOGraph this week – it’s a rather simple but lovely program that records your mouse movements across your desktop and outputs a PNG. Why? Well, why the heck not!

You can also add your desktop background into the image to clearly show where your mouse pointer spends most of its time – I just added the major traffic routes (Maya, basically) as notes on Flickr.

I think the results are quite striking – what do you reckon? I might well try a little experiment once I finish work where I try and run it every day for the 3 months that I’m off and then animate the results somehow… Could be cool!
