World Emoji Day!!

@17th July 2020…


No doubt, we all use our favorite emojis all the time in our conversations, especially our WhatsApp conversations isn’t? We all have that one emoji that we personally like and connect to. Every emoji has a meaning and purpose to it, and I feel, rather than typing a long message for happiness or sadness or when one is frustrated or any other kind of emotions one is going through, an emoji speaks all, I think.

Emojis have become an essential part of our expression while sending a text, or when you chat with your friends, etc. It is the new messaging trend! Since a lot of people found it as a better way of communication, Emojis have become a vital one when it comes to digital marketing as well.

A human brain recognizes Emojis as nonverbal information and so processed as emotions. You will be surprised to know that these Emojis have the power even to change the mood of the reader! Talking to a person directly will be easy for you to show sarcasm, your emotions, the tone of voice, and even your facial expression. But it is limited when you converse with a person via the internet.

Interpretation is vast when it comes to communication in the 21st Century. For example, when you respond with “Ok…” it appears that you are frustrated or feeling impatient. When you utilize emojis and instead respond with “Ok… 😊” it causes less worry and more displays a true understanding from the sender.

A happy emoji send by a friend or even an app will bring in some warmth and feel-good to the person who receives it. Who wouldn’t like to click on something that makes them feel good? This is where Emojis play a key role in push notification and is being used popularly. Emojis helps to trigger various emotions

in the human mind.

When we feel lazy or when we are at a loss of words then we use emojis to express what we want to. For every feeling, there is an emojis now. From the past years, emojis have evolved. It not only expresses simple human feelings but more than that.

Let’s talk some history on the same :)

The first emoji was created in 1999 by Shigetaka Kurita, an engineer working at a Japanese mobile operator, NTT Docomo. He creates 176 emojis for the release of the Japanese mobile phone operator NTT DoCoMo's integrated mobile internet service "i-mode", debuting in February 1999. In Yahoo Messenger, the oldest 'mainstream' emoji was used. In 2010, Unicode emoji was finally standardized. That is brands like Google, Microsoft, Facebook and Twitter can start creating their own versions of Emoji that would appear even if a message was sent from another operating system. Let me tell you that Unicode 6.0 is the largest release of emoji yet, consisting of 994 characters like emotions, a pile of poo, families, hearts, animals, clothes, food, city images, clocks, and country flags.

In 2014, World Emoji Day was created by the founder of Emojipedia named Jeremy Burge. Each month Emojipedia serves over 25 million emoji lookups!

There are an infinite amount of options when it comes to emojis, and it seems to grow often. The next time you send an email or text message that is boring or mundane, do not be afraid to add a touch of emotion. When used correctly, it has the potential to turn an employee into a friend or a client into an everlasting partnership.


The Impact of Emojis- 

Psychological Impact

In face-to-face communications, people share empathy and create relationships through a phenomenon called Emotional Contagion, in which similar emotions and their corresponding behaviors are directly triggered by one person to the other. In digital communication, emoji serves the purpose of translating emotions to express facial expressions. Indeed, researchers found that the same sections of the brain are activated when an individual sees an emoji as when seeing real human facial expressions. As such, emoji solve the inability to express gestures and emotions by allowing users to communicate through a variety of picture characters to express opinions, feelings, and personalities. 

Sociological Impact

In 2015, the Unicode Consortium introduced a range of emoji skin tone modifiers, giving users the ability to express diversity in many forms such as race, gender and ethnicity. The ability to express diversity through emoji is key in digital communication if people want to create confidential uniqueness and a sense of identity within a personal or business-related relationship.

So, if you want to send someone a message using emoji to celebrate World Emoji Day, Emojipedia has plenty to choose from, including six colors of raising hand emojis, five-party emojis and two kinds of fireworks. Go try it out! 😊

Tasting Indiscipline “Health is like money; we never have a true idea of its value until we lose it.” ~ Josh Billings We all have those cravings or thoughts that go regularly in our mind of junk food, we talk to ourselves at several occasions that, ‘Yeh Khaliya Toh Kya Hoga? I’m toh just having a bite and for a change na, nothing will happen. And eventually, I feel this is where the problem originates from. The urge of trying what is not suitable for our health but our tongues’ favorite, what to do? I totally understand this game being a teenager. I’m aware that often taste buds in our tongue overpower our brain and eventually we have a bite of it and oh boy, it is all over with a satisfaction which comes after a great job is done well. We often have a smile after consuming it. I am sure you can relate to it. Where to stop, when to have that kind of self- discipline, saying, now I have had my share (maybe more than my share) and now I’ve to stop otherwise it will be troubleso...

Have to be ODD to be ‘THE NUMBER ONE!’

Have to be ODD to be ‘THE NUMBER ONE!’ Think Outside the Box… I’ve always known that I was different ever since I was a child. I couldn’t help but to effortlessly be the odd one out. Growing up, this made me upset. I wanted to be cool and fit in like the other kids. But as I grew older, I realized how much I love being different. I embrace my individuality now! I love it and it’s what makes me, well, me! The invention of the wheel was a miraculous invention, along with the airplane, and the telephone. All the inventions that have ever been created weren't just something that was already drawn out on a piece of paper for the inventors. They had to think. They had to imagine the masterpiece before it was even a physical object. These people weren't just thinkers or inventors. These people "Thought Outside the Box." Many people who try to invent something are not successful because they are afraid to break the confines of the outline. What I mean by this is that th...
