This post is not technically savvy, nor does it provide industry information to set your business apart from others, but I would like to take a minute to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the smiley. Where would we be without emoticons in today's world of e-mails and electronic messages?
25 years ago today, Carnegie Mellon professor Scott E. Fahlman proposed the usage of :-) for messages with humor.
Now 25 years later we have an enormous amount of smiley's :) and winks ;-) which have morphed from the original smiley, as well as other emotions such as the sad emoticon :'(
