My latest Telex AI experiment: The Site Wide Counter Block.
I’m not an extremely prolific blogger, but there are many people who blog every day or week. Some bloggers have been writing for years. I always find it impressive when I see a website or blog note its beginning date is in the early 2000s. Some pioneers have been online since 1995.
For anyone writing online, especially spanning decades, it would be safe to assume a large quantity of words have been published over the course of time. I wanted a way to allow writers to display this achievement on their site.
The Site Wide Counter block is simple. It is a block that displays the total number of words posted on a website. It is intentionally simple. By itself, it looks just like a number:
Use a combination of blocks to create a unique message stating your word count accomplishment. I added the word count block into a row with other paragraph blocks to design this:

words since 2022.
My thought is that this makes an excellent footer credit. You can build credibility and impress readers by showing how consistent you are writing. Add a ❤️ emoji, custom message, or just drop the number and let people guess what it means.
This is only version 0.1.0. There are a few settings (color, size, padding, margin, animation toggle) with plans to add a few more.
