See Spacious and its most important features in action in the "Introducing Spacious" video at the Spacious Website (http://www.iospirit.com/spacious/).
KEY FEATURES
- Switch to neighbouring spaces
The Spacious Navigator appears when you move your mouse to your display’s borders and keep moving. Click on the Navigator to switch to the next or previous space.
- Quick app switching and quitting
Right-click on the Spacious Navigator to access recently used applications and Mission Control. Hover over an app's icon and a close button appears, allowing you to quit that app.
- Mouse wheel switching
If your mouse wheel can scroll left and right (often possible by tilting it), you can turn on an option in Spacious and henceforth use it to switch to the next and previous space instead.
SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
A Mac® running Mac OS® X 10.7 (Lion) or later.

Reminds of Warp
I like this app. Pretty simple in what it does - drag your mouse to the edge of the screen to switch spaces. 😉
A little barebones...
Good price for the app, but some customization would be nice. For example, the mouse wheel nudging is a bit counterintuitive (if you're like me and immediately reversed Mac OS X Lion's scrolling direction upon first using it). The preferences panel basically has just two things you can change, which is a little puzzling considering the ambitious amount of features this app provides.
Also, it's kind of half-broken if you're using multiple displays. I'm not saying it's an EASY solution to figure out, but you can't get both arrows on either display, due to the fact that they are continuous. The issue here is that the mouse isn't stopping once it gets to the edge of the screen, but it would be nice if there were a toggle for screen area instead of screen edge.
Please give us a bit more control guys! Power users are your target demographic anyway.
