I had first taken notice of this on Facebook. A number of posts that had cute little symbols attached to them.
Some examples were: Around Christmas time I was seeing something like ♪♫♫♪We wish you a Merry Christmas, We Wish you a Merry Christmas!♪♫♫♪. How in the world did they get those little musical notes into their post?
Or, perhaps you want to ©Copywrite something or give something a Trademark ™. Where did that little "©" and cute little "™"come from?
Well wonder no more. I'll bet you have a Character Map installed on your computer. These character maps will provide you endless entertainment with the various symbols available.
It's actually pretty easy. Go to "Start" / "Programs" / "Accessories" / "System Tools" /"Character Map"
From here, Click on Character Map, and the following will come up.
Depending on your computer and system, you will most likely have a large variety of fonts you can chose from in the drop down box. Once you find the symbol you are looking for, merely click on it, hit "select", then copy and paste it into your blog. Voila!
I hope this is useful! Most of you probably already knew how to do this, but it was Greek to me until a friend walked me through the proces. Happy Character Mapping!
