"The black and white days of text-based emails have had their day. Following the evolutionary path blazed by colored labels, we present, in all their technicolor glory, emoticons in your mail," says Darren Lewis from Google.
Google also added a new set of emoticons in Gmail Chat and it's strange to see that you can add much more emoticons in an email than in an IM conversation.
How about shortcut key like :) :( :P?
ReplyDeleteStrangely, the emoticons is not available in Google Chrome.
ReplyDeleteI don't know about the most stable Google Chrome version, but emoticons are available in Chromium 0.3.155.0.
ReplyDeleteI don't find them in my mail (google apps)
ReplyDeleteWonderful :)
ReplyDeleteThey're working in Chrome 0.2.149.30
ReplyDeleteI wonder when will Google release a USEFUL feature, just like a contact window in the "compose mail" page.
ReplyDeleteYep. Emoticons are available in Chrome. I noticed the new emoticons last night and like them. I use Windows Live Mail (email-client) with Gmail POP but it's nice to see that Gmail now has emoticons.
ReplyDeleteDon't see 'em.
ReplyDeleteNice feature... but not available in either of my Google Apps accounts. Maybe the rollout is still underway?
ReplyDeleteNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
ReplyDeleteI really hope they don't auto-paste themselves though, I want to be able to go :P without hugely ugly emoticons all over.
ReplyDeleteGreat hints, yet I doubt if emotion icons are still part of necessary element of the emails. :)
ReplyDeleteThe emoticons are somewhat not that good-looking. Better search for sweetim and you will surely have fun using emoticons.
ReplyDeletecrap - they should be more simple more flat
ReplyDeleteno one will understand such "renderings"
they dont have the codes so no one can use them in chat
ReplyDeletehow do u put them in chats??? i want 2 find that out!!!!!
ReplyDeleteAah sorry for the confusion, I have a much older version (0.2.149.27). I had downloaded for my workplace PC (against a firewall...) As a result, it doesnt update itself automatically.
ReplyDeleteVarun
what are all of the short cut keys?
ReplyDeleteI need to make cool monkeys and breasts, preferably some from 25 year olds.
ReplyDeleteI was wondering the shortcut keys as well...

ReplyDeleteIt's amazing that Google hasn't improved it's emoticons. I love Google but the emoticon design is just way down the bottom of the barrel --people can't even discern if it's a screwhead or a nail.
ReplyDeleteAnymore emoticons????????
ReplyDelete
