Titolo: cose strane

Ciao, non e' da molto che consulto e scrivo nei NG, mi potete spiegare se
quei caratteri strani che vedo spesso al termine dei messaggi o di alcune
frasi hanno un significato? e se si' quale?
ES. :))) e cose del genere
Grazie a che m'illuminera'

ES. :))) e cose del genere
Sono i cosiddetti "smiley", oppure "emoticons", altrimenti noti come
"faccine"...
Piega la testa (la tua) sul lato sinistro e guarda... i due punti sono
gli occhi e la parentesi e' una bocca sorridente. 
Credo che non serva aggiungere altro...
