Lo tech meets high tech to produce 'calm technology' - in this case, a dangling
string connected to a motor which interfaces to your network - and shows how
busy it is...

The Dangling String
Bits flowing through the wires of a computer network are
ordinarily invisible. But a radically new tool shows those
bits through motion, sound, and even touch. It
communicates both light and heavy network traffic. Its
output is so beautifully integrated with human information
processing that one does not even need to be looking at
it or near it to take advantage of its peripheral clues. It
takes no space on your existing computer screen, and in
fact does not use or contain a computer at all. It uses no
software, only a few dollars in hardware, and can be
shared by many people at the same time. It is called the
"Dangling String."
