Visiting it made me wonder why on earth we still stick to the tiresome habits of clicking on mouse buttons, when we can naturally get away with simple mouse gestures instead. Discovering this marvelous idea of changing the user interface layout adaptively upon mouse gestures was both entertaining and thought-provoking.

Apart from telling the idea, the site has some very elaborate demos to help understanding the concept too.

So, tell me, how long could you resist clicking the button? I survived for several minutes, and can’t wait to see this adopted on my desktop.
