    Hidden Skype Emoticons

    Recently I came across a site which had some of the Skype Hidden Emoticons.
    As I was interested in identifying if this was an exhaustive list I loaded the skype.exe file into a HEX editor to have a look around.

    Here is what I found:

    (inlove) (love) (cry) (surprised) (smile) (cool) (wink) (sweat) (sad) (surprised) (speechless) (kiss) (tongueout) (wonder) (snooze) (dull) (inlove) (love) (grin) (talk) (yawn) (puke) (angry) (wasntme) (party) (worry) (mm) (mmm) (mmmm) (nerd) (wave) (hi) (bye) (call) (devil) (angel) (envy) (wait) (hug) (bear) (makeup) (kate) (chuckle) (giggle) (clap) (think) (bow) (rofl) (whew) (happy) (smirk) (nod) (shake) (punch) (emo) (y) (Y) (ok) (yes) (n) (N) (no) (handshake) (skype) (ss) (h) (H) (l) (L) (heart) (u) (U) (brokenheart) (e) (m) (mail) (F) (f) (flower) (rain) (london) (sun) (o) (O) (time) (clock) (music) (~) (film) (movie) (mp) (ph) (phone) (coffee) (pi) (pizza) (cash) (mo) ($) (flex) (muscle) (^) (cake) (beer) (bricklayers) (d) (D) (drink) (dance) (ninja) (*) (star) (mooning) (finger) (bandit) (drunk) (smoking) (smoke) (ci) (toivo) (rock) (headbang) (banghead) (poolparty) (hrv) (swear) (bug) (fubar) (tmi) (heidy) (myspace)

    This is what they look like when included in a Skype message:

    Here are then smilies:

    New Firefox 3 Released

    I have now downloaded the latest version of Firefox.
    As with any new tool itโ€™s very exciting to see all the new features.
    The biggest positive I have seen so far is that it quicker than the earlier version and it appears to have good support for the existing add-ons, which I use extensively.
    So I think it is worth getting.
    If you get it today this will also help Firefox set a world record. Thatโ€™s sort of cool.
    Check it out at:
