Ultra longtime Mac users may recall a fun Classic Mac OS application that placed a set of googly eyes into the Mac menu bar, and those eyes would follow your cursor around as you used the Mac. While the old Classic Mac OS days are long gone (sigh), you can still have a bit of fun and whimsy on your modern Mac with the aptly named Googly Eyes app.

Googly Eyes lives in your Mac menu bar as a set of eyeballs whose pupils will follow your Mac cursor around as you use your computer, just like the old version of yesteryear. The little eyes even blink when you click the mouse/trackpad cursor. Is this going to revolutionize your computing experience? Probably not. But is it fun? Absolutely!

This made me smile. I cannot believe this has returned. There was a similar ‘extension” way back in System 6 or System 7 days that did something similar.  Old is new again. 😀
