Computer and Web Articles

I’ve watched computer mice come an incredibly long way in the past 20 years, and have been particularly excited by recent experimentation and improvements made in the realm of mouse ergonomics. I sat down to research a new mouse for my primary work computer a week or so ago and found that the more research I did, the more variations of interesting mice I discovered. With all the mixed expert opinions, reviews, and research/study results, I’ve yet to reach a final decision on a new mouse, but I thought you might be interested in seeing some of the unique models I came across!

• AirO2bic Quill Mouse – A 3 lb. mouse that is apparently the only computer mouse to date that’s been recognized by the Arthritis Foundation.
• Warm Mouse – A naturally antibacterial, PC- and Mac-compatible mouse that keeps your hand and fingers toasty on cold days by providing up to 104 degrees of infrared heat.
• Wow-Pen Vertical Mouse – Developed to help eliminate carpal tunnel syndrome, this compact vertical mouse’s design even allows for handwriting input.
• Ortho Mouse - Developed by a medical doctor to help prevent RSIs, this mouse was nominated for the Ergo Cup Award by the Industrial Engineers Institute of the U.S.
• Zero Tension Mouse – The creators of this odd looking mouse claim their product allows all the muscles of the hand, arm, and shoulder to effectively relax during use.
