A computer mouse has the same design for the last few decades. Few changes were made to make them more ergonomic and look better. However, very few products actually trying to re-imagine what a computer mouse should look like and came up with something really different. This product does. This is a computer mouse attached to our finger. I found this unique mouse several years ago in a tech market and decided to buy it because it seemed interesting. If I recall correctly, it costs around $5 at that time. It’s a wired mouse (no Bluetooth, no fancy wireless connectivity). There is no brand name on it. After using it for few days, I put it in my forgotten collection box and never touched it again, until today when a tech discussion with some friends about mouse vs trackpad reminds me of this unique mouse that I haven’t reviewed because I bought it before my website has gadget reviews.

It has a band to attach it to our index finger. It has two buttons that can easily be reached by thumb (left click and right click). It even has a scroll. Quite decent for a mouse, right?

Using this mouse for few hours was interesting and I believe most people will like it initially. After about 15 minutes of excitement, I tried to actually do productive work with it. It was doable, but not very effective. It took longer for me to do things, hence the reason why I stopped using it.

Interesting product to have and to show some friends occasionally, not for everyday use.
