+We at Compiler do love us some truly useless nerd games/tools/programs, so I was very excited to run across the following video of [NetQos's][5] network traffic monitoring system, [Netcosm][4]. NetQoS has transformed their network monitoring interface into a Tron-style arcade game of epic proportions.
+
+Unfortunately the system is not available to the general public, for the time being it only runs on their servers but there's an [FAQ][3] that gives some more details about how it works.
+
+If you're interested in similar network traffic toys see our coverage of [Sound of Traffic][1] which converts network traffic packets into sounds, complete with virtual instruments and mixing tools.
+
+And check out the NetQoS video after the jump.
