While it's not much help in keeping the screen from burning out, the effect is quite delightful. It doesn't distract while you're working on other thing, either.
Useless On 400 Mhz G3 - Should Be FREE!

While the author states that this works with Panther, like another user below, I found this SS to be useless on my G3. It runs extremely slow, and what graphics I do see, are blocky and distorted. Perhaps it would fare better on one of our faster machines.
I also agree that this idea is nothing new. The Fluid SS works in a similar fashion, and is better.
Finally, I find it ironic that this developer calls his software company "Useless Creations", and yet, he expects people to pay him money for this substandard screensaver. Granted, it undoubtedly took him some work to make this, but I agree that there are many free, high-quality screensavers around these days for OSX. Adding the nags to this SS just subtracts from it even more.
I suggest that the author improve this SS, and then give it away to the OSX community.
