Mouse Motion
January 24, 2005

I installed this little application today called MouseImp Pro. It lets you do some crafty things with scrolling. That’s its intent, anyway. But I noticed that it has an odometer, and that I’ll be breaking 90 meters of mouse movement - the distance I’ve moved the mouse around on my desk, not the distance the cursor has moved around on the screen - in the single day I’ve had it installed.

If I make it an extra 1.44 meters, totalling 91.44m, I’ll have pushed my mouse the length of a football field today!

Comment Moderation is Now Off
January 21, 2005

I got some comment spam today in my moderation queue (trapped by OSA 1.1, actually) that pointed to a live blog in addition to the traditional “you may be interested in” spam links. I checked out the blog and found this page, which I thought was quite humorous.

I took a screenshot to share it with you, since they’re likely to fix the problem if they’re a legit site. I didn’t include a link to them since they may yet be affiliated with spamming.
