Skip Checker continuously reads the data from the ‘sudden motion sensor’ of your portable Mac and lets you specify a threshold above which an acceleration (e.g. hitting the computer) will trigger an action.
The most obvious use for this can be found in the ‘Skip Tunes’ section which will let you slap your computer to make iTunes skip to the next song.
More advanced users can get more detailed control and enter their own scripts (or paths to their scripts and sounds) in the advanced section.
This bit of sillyness is brought to you by earthlingsoft with the heavy lifting being done by the unimotion library. The source code is included with the download. Also be sure to have a look at our other applications and hacks.
