Who wants to bring a bit of movement in headings, menu texts or other writing elements, should take a look at the Javascript library Blotter.js. With it you can easily create different text animations. The software relies on the OpenGL Shading Language (GLSL), but saves developers from having to deal with the language.

Blotter.js has five different ways that text can be rendered. The five methods are called materials, letting you, for example, break text into a cluster of animated dots or apply various distortion effects to it. On this overview page you can take a look at all five materials. If you click on one of them, an explanation will be displayed and you can play around with the different parameters live.
Here you can download Blotter.js
