(Get the code!)
I'm surprised no one has used this fun little tool:
http://
Download it, and in a terminal run this:
cd FOLDER (depends on where you saved it)
java -jar IOGraph.jar
If you wish, you can add a screenshot of your desktop for reference.
Just click the options button (tiny little tool icon, in the middle of the button set, which is located on the bottom right), then click Use Desktop as Background. It will freeze a bit to do a screenshot, but then will finish. Click the options button again to return.
Then click the big circle to start the mouse tracking.
Minimize it now. It will begin tracking mouse movement.
Keep it running for a while (3-8 hours).
Then open that window back up, and move your mouse to the center of that image, and click the pause button. Then., click the save button at the top of that button set (which is located at the bottom right corner). Save the image, and upload it.
The bigger a circle, the longer the pointer has stayed in that position.
Now THAT's the "data" Mark might be interested in. :)
Just upload the resulting image here and specify where your mouse was most of the time.
My only hope is that the changes will be reversed. This simple change
could affect the future of Ubuntu, and whether people will adopt it or not.
Take Office 2007. People HATE it. Even after all that learning, they still
want 2003 (and a menu for 2010 and higher). Some people don't even
bother upgrading.
