<p>Not sure if the link you posted is broken, but it just takes me to a download-page, but nothing about emojis?</p><p><br></p><p>But on the general-subject: I don't really get "emojis" thesedays. When they were "smilies" back in the SMS days, or "emoticons" back in the IM days, like MSN Messenger, they made sense — add some emotion into casual, text-only chat.</p><p><br></p><p>But thesedays aren't they essentially just ClipArt? The vast, vast majority of the icons aren't even faces now… I mean, instead of asking "fancy going for ?", why not just actually write "fancy going for pizza"? It must take more time to actually search for the emoji and insert it than write the actual word!</p>
