Settlers on Amiga used two mice for multiplayer. It was awesome.
Plugging additional mouse should give you additional cursor. Or better yet just putting another wireless mouse near given computer should give you that.
Also when you Cut something to clipboard with a mouse it should be stored inside you mouse so you can move it to another machine just by carrying mouse with you.
Could you turn your phone in such mouse?
Harder challenge:
Why multiple computers with multiple monitors can't just merge in one common space shared and split as their users see fit?
This is especially useful if you're on a laptop, especially a ThinkPad with the pointing stick. If you're doing something like Photoshop, it's nice to have one pointer near the tools and another near the work surface - it makes switching tools much faster (especially if you don't know the keyboard shortcuts that well.)
There are plenty of realistic applications for this! For example, controlling the reticle vs aim of a fps character, selecting units easily in an rts, selecting spells while looking around in an mmo, simulating multitouch, simulating button clicks to reduce cts symptoms ( so one hand draws, the other hand decides if you Re drawing and to what intensity by moving in and out of an intensity circle. )
When I moved to the bay area, I noticed that fellow Australians who had been here for more than three years sounded weirdly sort-of-American, and thought "good thing I'm going back in two years!"
I'm still here six and a half years later. I'm the guy in the video.
Now I'm curious, do (or why do) Australians seem to like Australia better? Coming from a family of immigrants and being one myself I love to hear stories of what country works better for certain people and why.
