6. Hey, Yahoo! developers and users.

   Thanks for the apreciation and cheers to the grin-tattoo girl.

   @Lucky – Yes, the Mad World emoticoncer was the first I made and I think most popular – it prolly was the best, I can’t explain why, although tunes are not from the same genre.

   I would hug everyone but as people said I’m not sure the emoticon would turn up.

   Anyway >:D

7. Hm… it deleted everything that was after the last arm from the hug emoticon… Maybe code problem?

8. Reference: Click 2 Troubleshooters

   Click 2 “Troubleshooters” from KPRC Local Channel Two, based in Houston, Texas, broke the story about filthy chatrooms and tha advertisers that unknowingly sponsored them. Remember, this spelled the end for user created chatrooms.

   Now, Yahoo says no one under 18 can use their chat service. This is a good idea, in concept, but “Family Accounts” still offer the option of letting underage people to use their chat protocol. Just go research Yahoo Family Accounts.

   And still no action on pornagraphy “bots” that offer up links to filth in their chatrooms. Oh sure, a lot fewer porn-bots directly message a user now. I think spam guard is working in that respect. But the entities that produce porn-bots and other such spim have responded in kind by simply flooding Yahoo Chatrooms with an exhausting number of bogus screen names. Thus rendering Yahoo Chat unusable in many instances.

   Certainly, with all of the hub-bub surrounding social networking web services, Yahoo might have taken the initiative to clean up the act. But no.

   In closing, let me state that Click 2 Troubleshooters would, I think, be interested in doing a follow up story to their origional, that closed user created chat rooms.

   That Yahoo Inc would allow thousands upon thousands of unchecked “porn-bots” to infest their chat rooms boggles the mind, and anything and everything should be done to bring this very simple fact to their immediate attention. If it takes media coverage, well then so be it.

11. [...] Ieri, coi-incidental chiar de ziua Jeg, a apărut pe blogul oficial al Y!M un articol, împărţit de mine, cu emoticoncerurile, şi o tipă care a găsit de cuviinţă să-şi tatueze pe-o coapsă un emoticon de grin. [...]

12. If you are into Yahoo’s Emoticons (smileys) in a big way (and lets face it who isn’t! you can now test your skills (or a fun way to improve them) using EmotiBlaster http://www.wackyb.co.nz/EmotiBlaster originally written by Chris Szeto, we’ve taken his excellent code and with permission updated it to include all the latest smileys and key combinations, a few other tweaks here and there (full details of update on site); But most importantly (well at the moment as I’m at the top of the leader board ) I’ve added submit your high score. So if you think you’re a wizz with the smiley codes without looking them up see if you can get past level 4 (New help box shows the codes required for any missed smileys so you learn as you play for next time). Have fun.. http://www.wackyb.co.nz/EmotiBlaster

22. Yo listen up Enough– yeah Im talkin to you!! Have you ever heard of this little thing called “Parenting”????? It’s this thing where you don’t allow your kids to surf the net without supervision. If you did that once in awhile, our government wouldn’t have to become the babysitters they have had to become and we wouldn’d have so many screwed up kids these days. Take some freakin responsibility for a change, instead of blaming your lack of it onto anything and everything you can find– other than where it belongs- on your shoulders!! Its not Yahoo’s fault your kidlet got into the porn- its yours, plain and simple, because you wern’t watching the little darling(hellion is probably closer I’d bet). Geez when is this ever gonna stop?
    Enough, you may as well get in line for your National ID card and microchip too– folks like you deserve one, cause you can’t think for yourself.

    Just my 2 cents!!

    Yeah and btw, nice emoticons…I’ve really enjoyed them over the years.

31. [...] After repeatedly being posted on Romanian and foreign blogs Darius decided to post the link and a shot review on the Yahoo! Messenger blog. The next day ha was very surprised at seeing that his post had been paid attention by Sarah Bacon, Product Manager at Yahoo! Messenger. “Hello Darius, it’s extraordinary. Very clever.” His girlfriend’s ID was added by 85 people to their personal Yahoo! Messenger list. Some of those who sent her messages did it just for fun but others had serious intentions. One of them Jeff Bonforte, who is in charge with Yahoo! Messenger with voice, contacted Darius’ girlfriend on Messenger. Darius got his personal e-mail address and personally wrote to him. When asked how he could prove his identity and support his claim of working for Yahoo! Bonforte told Darius to search his name on the internet. The young student found that Bonforte was indeed an employee of the well known web site. [...]

80. Mike Perier says that The 1st show of the new series, broadcast on Saturday, featured a kissogram, a naked Physician along with a “sexed up” Tardis.During the special 65-minute episode, The Eleventh Hour, in which Physician Who had 20 minutes to save Earth from aliens recognized as the Atraxi, his new companion, Amy Pond, was revealed as a kissogram dressed in a skimpy policeman’s outfit, complete with mini-skirt and handcuffs. In one scene, Amy, played by the actress Karen Gillan, told the Dr that her kissogram repertoire also included nuns and nurses’ outfits. Uncover out much more at Sci Fi Fan, can anyone comment on this?

83. I am really not too familiar with this subject but I do like to visit blogs for layout ideas. You really expanded upon a subject that I usually don’t care much about and made it very exciting. This is a unique blog that I will take note of. I already bookmarked it for future reference.
    Thank you deal of the day..

84. Can’t say I’ve ever had the emoticon fever, but then again, I can’t lie and say that I’ve never used them before, either. Still not much of an “instant messanger” fan these days though (since the inception of text messaging).

90. Emoticons are helpful also, it gives some guidance on how to understand the message, whether it should be read as a joke and in a light manner.

    Comment by Job Searcho — September 21, 2011 #

91. Of all the emoticons, I like the happy smile. The happy smile is essentially positive in nature and conveys cheer. The important thing is to note that it should be used only when you would generally smile at the other person while delivering a message.
