optical mouse motion sensor thread

Throughout the years we have used a sensor to measure the distance that the robot moves. I have been playing with a couple of ideas to keep track of motion. My favorite idea is using an optical mouse I've found this information:

Cody's robot optical motion sensor

I have some general questions that we can all learn from:
  1. How do we connect to the CRio
  2. How do we program to utilize the information the motion sensor can give us.
