Mouse pads are essential for maximizing mouse accuracy. Mouse pads did not come into existence until 1984. Initially, people used their mouse directly on a wooden or plastic desk surface, without a mouse pad. However, cursor and mouse accuracy are important; hence, the mouse pad was born. In the beginning, the mouse pad was a rectangular hunk of rubber with some fabric slapped on top. Variations appeared in shapes, but the mouse pad, as we now know it, came into being when advertisers took notice of the advertising potential.

Advertiser recognized the benefit of putting their logos on potential customer's desks. Promotional mouse pads are distributed as free gifts at trade shows, conventions, job fairs, etc. Advertisers make custom mouse pads for companies to distribute to their employees as a form of advertisement to visitors who do business with that company. With technology, the mouse pad concept has evolved into many choices. The optical mouse introduced textured mousing surfaces for better accuracy. To alleviate repetitive stress disorders like carpal tunnel syndrome, the ergonomic gel mouse pad was introduced. There are fancy mouse pads made from fancy materials, cute graphics and super thin variations.

PC gamers and graphic professionals usually use high-performance pads that give better response for the use of optical mice that befits a techie lifestyle. A better alternative to stress disorders like carpal tunnel syndrome, is memory foam that is used in mouse pads to retain body head and improve blood flow to make the mouse pad more comfortable to the user.
