[SOE MOE] 1 New Entry: First Computer Mouse

First Computer Mouse

The very first computer mouse was invented 40 years ago by an American inventor Dr. Douglas C. Engelbart in 1968.

It is quite different from what we are using today. The mouse was made of wooden box and it has only one button. Follow the link to view some of the photos and design of the first mouse.

Thanks to Dr. Engelbart, we are using the most efficient Human-computer Interface unit which makes computing very easy. We are touching it everyday and we can't live without using it in day-to-day office life.

If you are interested in the history of computing mouse and how it was developed over 40 years you may want to view this link by Wikipedia. There are so many different kinds of mouse for different purposes.

Today by listening to radio, I've learnt that mouse was invented about 40 years ago and how it was looked like.
