WonderSay - Create & Share Animated Messages

The Utility of Message Intermediaries and Animated Text

Individuals familiar with services such as Bit.ly or Furly, and the broader category of URL shortening platforms, understand the benefits provided by intermediate messaging systems.

These tools are valuable whether sharing an interesting article with a contact or disseminating a blog post update on platforms like Twitter; URL shorteners effectively deliver the link to your intended audience.

Beyond Link Sharing: Creative Messaging

Consider the possibility of transmitting a message in an imaginative manner, rather than simply forwarding a website address.

Delivering a complimentary animated text message represents a compelling method for capturing attention and emphasizing your communication.

This approach allows for the transmission of inspirational quotations to acquaintances, festive greetings to relatives, or visually striking messages to your blog subscribers or website visitors.

Existing Solutions and Their Limitations

Previously, MUO has explored comparable options, including 3D Text Maker and Text Anim.

However, these platforms typically generate animated GIFs that require self-hosting.

This presents a challenge for users without a personal website or those seeking to avoid the complexities of hosting animated content.

Introducing Wondersay: Simplified Animated Messaging

For those seeking a streamlined solution, Wondersay offers a platform dedicated to creating and sharing animated messages.

With Wondersay, users can readily begin crafting their own unique "Wondersayings" without the need for external hosting or technical expertise.

Introducing Wondersaying: Animated Message Creation

Wondersay represents a novel service enabling the creation of dedicated webpages for delivering animated messages. Account registration or email submission isn't required for use. Similar to URL shortening services, users simply input their desired message into the "make a new wondersaying" field to instantly generate an animated presentation.

A formatting technique for your animated message involves inserting a "double space" between each intended pause. This causes each segment of text to appear and disappear sequentially on the screen, governed by the current speed settings.

Upon message creation, users are directed to a unique, customized link. It’s recommended to bookmark this URL for future customization or to access the link or embed code. Sharing is accomplished by highlighting and copying the link from the provided box, then distributing it via email or other messaging platforms.

The settings tab allows comprehensive control over the animated message’s elements. Users can modify the appearance and disappearance of each section, adjust the animation speed, and alter the webpage’s overall theme, including background, text colors, and font styles.

Each element features a dedicated pop-up window for swift color selection with just a few clicks.

Experimenting with the built-in effects offers a powerful way to significantly transform your message. This can effectively create a concise presentation suitable for delivery to any audience via the generated link.

In one instance, a website promotion was announced using Wondersay, with the animated message shared through Twitter and integrated into a blog. Clicking the link reveals a full webpage dedicated to the animated text.

A particularly valuable feature is the embed option. This allows the creation of a dynamic animated advertisement directly on a website. The iframe code is highlighted from the embed tab.

Integrating this code into a website’s sidebar results in an eye-catching advertisement. While the animation loops only once, the final frame remains visible, and users can replay or view the message in fullscreen.

For Twitter updates, the service leverages bit.ly for URL shortening.

This integration enables tracking click-through rates from Twitter, providing insight into the traffic generated by the Wondersaying page. It’s a useful metric for assessing campaign performance.
