That's almost exactly what I did over a year ago. Still works great.

drventure:
So if I'm reading that correctly, the idea is to take an optical mouse, gut it and put a spinner knob attached to a wheel that's marked in some fashion, the mount the mouse guts over the wheel upside down, so essentially, the "desk" is moving under the mouse, right?

That's a slick idea, and very simple.

Nice!

IG-88:
Very nice indeed! What did you use for the disc that the mouse tracks on?

Xiaou2:
 Doesnt this introduce some Vertical movement as well? 

 It would be the equivalent of rolling your mouse in a circle.

 
 I think it may be better if the wheel tracked was made to be vertical.   
And that way,  you wouldnt have any other direction being sensed / activated.
