The MugMouse

The MugMouse, by interaction designer Louise Wictoria Klinker, is a computer mouse you can use to drink coffee. Or a coffe mug you can use as a mouse.

It´s just much slower. When filled with tea or coffee, the mug needs to be moved more carefully than a normal mouse. Working on the computer deserves a bit more time, reflection or personal involvement. MugMouse is in fact a reward: not only can you take a sip at your mouse but it acts as a signal to yourself and to others that you´re having a little more time away from work.
