World Emoji Day
July 17, 2017

Spend some time getting to know emojis better. How many of them do you use? How many of them are you even aware of? String together a set of random emojis and send it, without preamble, to friends, family, and colleagues. Screencap their responses and post them to your preferred social media platforms so we can see them. We’re honestly just curious how that’ll pan out.

Say it with words. Well, a picture of words
