Mousinity

Description: Mousinity creates an infinity effect for your cursor when it reaches the edges of your screen. For example if you go to the top of your screen, your mouse will appear on the bottom, right-to-left, etc. This is especially useful for large screens.

Note that the program has no icon or taskbar item so when you want to close the application, run Mousinity again and select ‘yes’.

Download: Mousinity.zip
Version: V1.1.0.2
License: Freeware (personal use only)
Requirements: Window XP above.
Portable: Yes (Stealth)

well, I 've been using it for 1-2 hours and it still feels awkward, not sure if I will keep it, although theoritically it would save mouse movements (thus time and effort) :/

It's interesting to me too.

The big test is if it behaves on double monitors.

Edit: It does! So this will be one more useful widget, because I have two 24" monitors at work and that "trek across the screen" really does get noticeable.

Edit#2: Almost. On one of my screens it doesn't wrap from bottom to top. But it's still cute!

I think it can be easily implemented in AHK, so one may come up with a better one

as for me, I deleted it :/
