Dean - is it your birthday?Dean6805 says,
No, it's the birthday (per NPR) of the smiley face emoticon. I thought it only appropriate to wish it a happy one here under the Digital Life tab.harley587 says,
Got it!! lole.towhee says,
So, exactly how old is the smiley face emoticon?Dean6805 says,
30!accidentaltourist says,
My smiley never has a nose. I wonder...was it actually born with one that I ignored, or did it acquire it over time?Dean6805 says,
According to the bit on NPR, it was born with a hyphen for a nose.accidentaltourist says,
:) I guess I'm just lazy. Or maybe it's my typesetter/newswriter's nature to save space.accidentaltourist says,
In six: Read the wiki on emoticons: zzzzzzz.;)

I hope the smiley face can keep a smile at age 30.
