Floor Mouse (2018)

I have a surf mouse which is kind of fun on my standup desk. I never really got the hang of it, but it is too cool to get rid of. https://www.surfmouse.io/ maybe it is for you.

Whew, 300 bux.... but it does seem like it would make a keyboard based workflow a lot easier....

Shameless plug, but you may like the Inertia Mode of my TPMouse script[0] if you need a keyboard-based workflow systemwide.

This is so cool. How'd you find it? Can you use it continuously for a whole day? Can you use it while sitting? How long does it take to learn and adapt to it?

I found the creator on reddit a year or so back where he showed it off. I want to support small guys so I took a chance that it wasn't a scam, and it came and works.

I find that it forces standing perfectly straight and still, while I like to wobble when standing so I never use it long.

I never tried sitting with it, the FAQ says you can. YMMV.

Learning doesn't take long, just plug it in, stand on it an watch your mouse move.
