WhatPulse is a free service that lets you measure your computer usage and compete against your friends. Measure bandwidth, uptime and how many times you type or click in a day.
The project started in 2003, founded by Martijn Smit as a "fun thing to do" and it quickly grew to a necessity for people who love statistics. Today, more than 100,000 people use WhatPulse to measure their computing usage and we receive pulses from every continent.
