Introducing: MugMouse. The most useless seemingly useful piece of office equipment in existence.
(via)
It’s a mug. It’s a laser mouse. It reduces productivity to a crawl and effectively keeps your fuel nearby.
Just don’t drop it on your keyboard.
Have a Great Weekend!

About the Design:
“After thousands of years of ceramic history you might think there isn’t anything significant left to try in the design of cups with handles. The fact that unusual mugs usually are awkward to use would reinforce this idea. However, after years of designing ceramics, I realized that all conventional coffee cup designs were determined more by the manufacturing and design processes than by the needs of the coffee cup user. What does a perfect cylinder have to do with the shape of the human hands or lips? It is merely a simple shape that is easy to make on a lathe, turntable, or in a CAD program.” …more.
Cup ergonomics? A worthwhile endeavor?
What do you think?
I think it’s kind of nice to see the concept of “quality” applied to more than just use of material in regards to cups. We talk about coffee quality in more depth than simply the quality of the green or the quality of the roast.
If nothing else, it is definitely an eye catcher.
