Talk: New emoticon?

Talk: New emoticon?

In article <325ser$pg...@gagme.wwa.com>, chr...@fwi.uva.nl (chris verhoef)
writes of his discovery of <3 as a new emoticon for "heart"/"love".

No, Chris, I hadn't seen this one before, and it sure is a cute one. 
However, most emoticons read top to the left, which leaves this heart in a
potentially sad position.  And E> doesn't really cut it, either. :(   We
could use 8> although when I see that one, I'm reminded of Big Bird for
some reason. ;)
