In this post we have a fun effect you can add to the links in your blog labels list.This trick has been around for a while and i have been using it on some other blogs.The effect is created using jQuery and basically when a visitor places their cursor over a link it moves across horizontally.So in the same manner you might have links change color, underline or change background on hover this will make them move.
