Make Goofy Features

I have zero authority here, I just enjoy finding and creating these features and want to see more of them 😄

Potential Benefits:

  • Personality
  • Friendly (hopefully!)
  • Memorable
  • Can even be a reason to share your site/app/etc.
  • Learn new things when building the feature

Tradeoffs:

  • Time
  • Requires creativity
  • Could be distracting or take away from the main purpose of your site/app/etc

Examples:

  • Suble animations
  • Not-so-sublte-animations
  • Micro interactions
  • Scroll triggers (but not scroll hijacking!)
  • Confetti cannons
