This blogging platform aims to give readers added insight into the writers' creative processes with a real-time typing feature. Latvian site Writer.is has a text typing effect that shows you blog posts one letter at a time, so it's like you're seeing the text being typed live.
Anyone can use the journal-based blogging platform by signing up and creating a profile. After you choose a title and background photo, you are ready to go. The blogging platform encourages users to update on a daily basis with short diary-like posts. People interested in reading your content see your journal in a separate page. Each letter appears individually -- just as the writer originally typed it. This engaging effect adds suspense.
