Are you a ///0-0\\\ fan? Or perhaps you used to be a *\0/*?

If you can make sense of that (it was John Lennon and a Cheerleader!), then you will LOVE this emoticon fairy tale. It’s an adorable boy-meets-girl story told in the very simple, geek language known as emoticons. After Googling it, I’ve become amazed just how large the emoticon language can be, with Eastern, Western and Japanese versions. For more style guides to dress up your emails or online chat check out these creative emoticons too!

Enjoy this TED talk – we certainly did at the office here!

Yours in design,
