Smiley Dictionary

After my post about the acronym dictionary here is a quick reference to the smiley dictionary.

So don't get left behind in the smiley revolution. Pick the smiley from the Smiley dictionary that best suits your mood.

Thought, the origin of the smiley is not completely straightened out; the smiley has become an essential of Internet culture, with animated images and representations, as well text-based emoticons.
