What is the blue ball?

Today when Frodo, my Mac Mini woke from it’s sleep, I found this:
a blue ball, that I can drag around on screen and that reacts to clicking on it — by becoming even more blue.
What the hell is this?
Well it’s a Mac so not being able to have a Blue Screen of Death it decided to create itself a Blue Ball of Nothingness :-)
The blue ball is a (normally hidden) part of Exposé You can read more here:
