FAQ About The Evolution of Emojis in Digital Communication
What are emojis and how did they originate?
Emojis are small digital images or icons used to express ideas, emotions, or concepts in electronic communication. They originated in Japan in the late 1990s when Shigetaka Kurita designed a set of 176 symbols for NTT DoCoMo's i-mode, a mobile internet platform.
