Emoticons and Emojis Emoticons and Emojis http://donsnotes.com/society/emoji.html Don's Home Messaging Etiquette | Symbols and Icons Emoticons and Emojis Under Construction Emoticons were originally combinations of keyboard symbols used to represent a facial expression that, in the absence of body language, served to draw a receiver's attention to the tenor or temper of a sender's non-verbal communication. E.g. ":)" - Happy Emojis are pictorial representations (ideograms or smileys) usually small (18x18 - 22x22 pixel - depending on the font size specified) icons that fit on a line of text for the same thing. They originated in Japan and were called kaomojis. The word emoji literally means "picture" (e) + "character" (moji). They now include common objects, places, food and types of weather, activities, animals symbols and other things. ☔ Native and Mac OS X and iOS versions are the same. Android versions are also in color. Newer versions of android have emojis similar to the Native versions. - They are black and white in windows or blue in win 10. See How they appear in different browsers, email and OSs below. Most text messaging software has a bunch of these built in.

  • Collection and Analysis of a Longitudinal Twitter Sentiment Dataset
    The emojification of sentiment on social media: Collection and analysis of a longitudinal Twitter sentiment dataset Wenjie Yin, Rabab Alkhalifa, Arkaitz Zubiaga Queen Mary University of London, UK {w.yin,r.a.a.alkhalifa,a.zubiaga}@qmul.ac.uk Abstract Social media, as a means for computer-mediated communication, has been extensively used to study the sentiment expressed by users around events or topics. There is however a gap in the longitudinal study of how sentiment evolved in social media over the years. To fill this gap, we develop TM-Senti, a new large-scale, distantly su- pervised Twitter sentiment dataset with over 184 million tweets and covering a time period of over seven years. We describe and assess our methodology to put together a large-scale, emoticon- and emoji-based labelled sentiment analysis dataset, along with an analysis of the re- sulting dataset. Our analysis highlights interesting temporal changes, among others in the increasing use of emojis over emoticons. We pub- licly release the dataset for further research in tasks including sentiment analysis and text classification of tweets. The dataset can be fully rehy- drated including tweet metadata and without missing tweets thanks to the archive of tweets publicly available on the Internet Archive, which the dataset is based on. 1 Introduction Social media research (Ngai, Tao, & Moon, 2015) and sentiment analysis (Poria, Hazarika, Majumder, & Mihalcea, 2020) have gained popularity in the last decade, both separately and jointly. Sentiment analysis of social media content is a fertile research area in a wide variety of fields including natural language processing (Wilson, Wiebe, & Hoffmann, 2005), computa- tional social science (Vydiswaran et al., 2018), information science (Zimbra, Ghiassi, & Lee, 2016) and beyond.

  • Seeing Emoji Rendering Differences Across Platforms
    What I See is What You Don’t Get: The Effects of (Not) Seeing Emoji Rendering Differences across Platforms HANNAH MILLER HILLBERG, GroupLens Research, University of Minnesota, USA ZACHARY LEVONIAN, GroupLens Research, University of Minnesota, USA DANIEL KLUVER, GroupLens Research, University of Minnesota, USA LOREN TERVEEN, GroupLens Research, University of Minnesota, USA BRENT HECHT, Northwestern University, USA Emoji are popular in digital communication, but they are rendered differently on different viewing platforms (e.g., iOS, Android). It is unknown how many people are aware that emoji have multiple renderings, or whether they would change their emoji-bearing messages if they could see how these messages render on recipients’ devices. We developed software to expose the multi-rendering nature of emoji and explored whether this increased visibility would affect how people communicate with emoji. Through a survey of 710 Twitter users who recently posted an emoji-bearing tweet, we found that at least 25% of respondents were unaware that the emoji they posted could appear differently to their followers. Additionally, after being shown how one of their tweets rendered across platforms, 20% of respondents reported that they would have edited or not sent the tweet. These statistics reflect millions of potentially regretful tweets shared per day because people cannot see emoji rendering differences across platforms. Our results motivate the development of tools that increase the visibility of emoji rendering differences across platforms, and we 1 contribute our cross-platform emoji rendering software to facilitate this effort. 124 CCS Concepts: • Human-centered computing → Empirical studies in collaborative and social computing KEYWORDS Emoji; computer-mediated communication; cross-platform; rendering; invisibility of system status ACM Reference format: Hannah Miller Hillberg, Zachary Levonian, Daniel Kluver, Loren Terveen and Brent Hecht.

  • Proposal to Add U+2B95 Rightwards Black Arrow to Unicode Emoji
    Proposal to add U+2B95 Rightwards Black Arrow to Unicode Emoji J. S. Choi, 2015‐12‐12 Abstract In the Unicode Standard 7.0 from 2014, ⮕ U+2B95 was added with the intent to complete the family of black arrows encoded by ⬅⬆⬇ U+2B05–U+2B07. However, due to historical timing, ⮕ U+2B95 was not yet encoded when the Unicode Emoji were frst encoded in 2009–2010, and thus the family of four emoji black arrows were mapped not only to ⬅⬆⬇ U+2B05–U+2B07 but also to ➡ U+27A1—a compatibility character for ITC Zapf Dingbats—instead of ⮕ U+2B95. It is thus proposed that ⮕ U+2B95 be added to the set of Unicode emoji characters and be given emoji‐ and text‐style standardized variants, in order to match the properties of its siblings ⬅⬆⬇ U+2B05–U+2B07, with which it is explicitly unifed. 1 Introduction Tis document primarily discusses fve encoded characters, already in Unicode as of 2015: ⮕ U+2B95 Rightwards Black Arrow: Te main encoded character being discussed. Located in the Miscellaneous Symbols and Arrows block. ⬅⬆⬇ U+2B05–U+2B07 Leftwards, Upwards, and Downwards Black Arrow: Te three black arrows that ⮕ U+2B95 completes. Also located in the Miscellaneous Symbols and Arrows block. ➡ U+27A1 Black Rightwards Arrow: A compatibility character for ITC Zapf Dingbats. Located in the Dingbats block. Tis document proposes the addition of ⮕ U+2B95 to the set of emoji characters as defned by Unicode Technical Report (UTR) #51: “Unicode Emoji”. In other words, it proposes: 1. A property change: ⮕ U+2B95 should be given the Emoji property defned in UTR #51.

  • Assessment of Options for Handling Full Unicode Character Encodings in MARC21 a Study for the Library of Congress
    1 Assessment of Options for Handling Full Unicode Character Encodings in MARC21 A Study for the Library of Congress Part 1: New Scripts Jack Cain Senior Consultant Trylus Computing, Toronto 1 Purpose This assessment intends to study the issues and make recommendations on the possible expansion of the character set repertoire for bibliographic records in MARC21 format. 1.1 “Encoding Scheme” vs. “Repertoire” An encoding scheme contains codes by which characters are represented in computer memory. These codes are organized according to a certain methodology called an encoding scheme. The list of all characters so encoded is referred to as the “repertoire” of characters in the given encoding schemes. For example, ASCII is one encoding scheme, perhaps the one best known to the average non-technical person in North America. “A”, “B”, & “C” are three characters in the repertoire of this encoding scheme. These three characters are assigned encodings 41, 42 & 43 in ASCII (expressed here in hexadecimal). 1.2 MARC8 "MARC8" is the term commonly used to refer both to the encoding scheme and its repertoire as used in MARC records up to 1998. The ‘8’ refers to the fact that, unlike Unicode which is a multi-byte per character code set, the MARC8 encoding scheme is principally made up of multiple one byte tables in which each character is encoded using a single 8 bit byte. (It also includes the EACC set which actually uses fixed length 3 bytes per character.) (For details on MARC8 and its specifications see: http://www.loc.gov/marc/.) MARC8 was introduced around 1968 and was initially limited to essentially Latin script only.

  • New Emoji Requests from Twitter Users: When, Where, Why, and What We Can Do About Them
    1 New Emoji Requests from Twitter Users: When, Where, Why, and What We Can Do About Them YUNHE FENG, University of Tennessee, Knoxville, USA ZHENG LU, University of Tennessee, Knoxville, USA WENJUN ZHOU, University of Tennessee, Knoxville, USA ZHIBO WANG, Wuhan University, China QING CAO∗, University of Tennessee, Knoxville, USA As emojis become prevalent in personal communications, people are always looking for new, interesting emojis to express emotions, show attitudes, or simply visualize texts. In this study, we collected more than thirty million tweets mentioning the word “emoji” in a one-year period to study emoji requests on Twitter. First, we filtered out bot-generated tweets and extracted emoji requests from the raw tweets using a comprehensive list of linguistic patterns. To our surprise, some extant emojis, such as fire and hijab , were still frequently requested by many users. A large number of non-existing emojis were also requested, which were classified into one of eight emoji categories by Unicode Standard. We then examined patterns of new emoji requests by exploring their time, location, and context. Eagerness and frustration of not having these emojis were evidenced by our sentiment analysis, and we summarize users’ advocacy channels. Focusing on typical patterns of co-mentioned emojis, we also identified expressions of equity, diversity, and fairness issues due to unreleased but expected emojis, and summarized the significance of new emojis on society. Finally, time- continuity sensitive strategies at multiple time granularity levels were proposed to rank petitioned emojis by the eagerness, and a real-time monitoring system to track new emoji requests is implemented.

  • 95% of Internet Users Have Used an Emoji. Over 10 Billion Emojis Are Sent Daily
    95% Of Internet Users Have Used An Emoji. Over 10 Billion Emojis Are Sent Daily July 17th recognizes World Emoji Day and many of the world’s symbolic icons for digital calendars. The day encourages us to use emojis to send unique messages. Before the emoji, there were emoticons. Emoticons (emotion + icon) was developed as an expression of emotions in the cold hard texts that were devoid of them. Emoji, a Japanese expression, roughly means “picture word” and was created by Shigetaka Kurita in 1990. While working for the Japanese telecom company NTT Docomo, Kurita would design these picture words as a feature on their pagers to make them more appealing to teens. The word “Emoji” is derived from the Japanese words e (for picture) and moji (for character), apparently the seeming connection to the words emotion and emoticon are purely incidental! The release of the first iPhone by Apple in 2007 had an emoji keyboard embedded into the phone to nab the Japanese market. While not intended for U.S. users to find, they did and quickly figured out how to use it. Every year new emojis (both emoji and emojis are acceptable plural forms of the word) are developed. The emojipedia.org keeps track of all the emoji updates across all platforms and operating systems. Over 1800 emojis cover much more than just emotions. Over 900M emojis are sent every day without text on Facebook Messengerr More than 700M emojis are used in Facebook posts every day. The biggest day for emoji usage on Messenger is New Year’s Eve For 2020, 117 new emojis are to be introduced, including a toothbrush, bubble tea, Transgender flag, black cat and more.
