Text around mouse

Written by @kerixa 21 August 2012

Adding a beautiful effect or style to your website can make it more beautiful. In the following code, a text follows the mouse and if the mouse stops at a point and stays, the text also stays at that point. In this case, the text starts from the right side of the mouse. Usually short texts are placed to the right side of the pointer. This beautiful effect alone can attract more audiences to your website and you can write your favorite text instead of the default text.

Code Snippet:
