SUMMARY:World Emoji Day
DESCRIPTION: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. \n\n\n\n#WorldEmojiDay\n\n\n\nBefore 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. \n\n\n\nEmoji\, 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. \n\n\n\nThe 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. \n\n\n\nEvery 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. From transportation\, food\, an assortment of wild and domesticated animals to social platforms\, weather\, and bodily functions\, emojis virtually speak for themselves. \n\n\n\nWhen it comes to celebration emojis\, the designers created a variety to make sure we could express our excitement. Whether we celebrate the arrival of a new baby\, an anniversary\, or a birthday\, there’s something for every celebration. In fact\, if we search our emojis carefully\, we could probably Celebrate Every Day® on National Day Calendar® emoji style. \n\n\n\nHOW TO OBSERVE WORLD EMOJI DAY\n\n\n\n\nExplore emojis.\n\n\n\nSend them to your friends.\n\n\n\nSee if they like it!\n\n\n\nUse #WorldEmojiDay to share on social media.
