For example, :] for happy, :[ for sad, :D for really happy, XD for lol and :0 for surprised? There are many many other smilies you can make with letters and punctuation keys. Do you use smilies?

smilies - Sometimes, I use smilies whenever I chat. It is a way to express yourself when you chat.

LOL that's actually the one i always use. my officemate calls it a frog smile. i never thought it was called like that because i got that smiley from my fellow anime otakus so i thought it was based on anime and not on a frog. ^__^;; (embarrassed) i also use :p (sticking tongue out), .

I don't hardly ever use the type that you type out yourself. I will use the ones that are already made for us sometimes. I wish mylot had them.

Yes, I use them all the time. I'd even say that I overuse them. :P They help get stuff across in a world (online) where you can't physically can't show your OWN facial expression. ;)
