<p>If you could see what your mouse did on your screen all day, what would it look like?</p>
<p>One designer, Anatoly Zenkov, recorded his mouse movements (lines) and stops (circles) after using Photoshop for a few hours. He used a java applet you can download for <a href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/684632/mousepath.jar">Mac</a> and <a href="http://cdn.thenextweb.com/files/2010/01/mousepath.exe.zip">PC</a>. Simply let it run in the background, and use commands &#8220;S&#8221; to save the image and &#8220;R&#8221; to restart.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re a developer or designer, you should definitely consider downloading the applet &#8212; it could be quite useful in designing interfaces and if nothing else, it looks really cool. Comment below and share some of your mouse trails with us!</p>
