Facicons

Description

As with most of the people we know, a growing portion of communication with our friends and family runs through Facebook. Amongst other things, we post status updates, comment on our friends feeds and upload the occasional picture. With this amount of writing in Facebook, something started to frustrate us. How come there was no option to add a simple smiley to our comments and status updates? We had grown so accustomed to adding a smiley in most of the other platforms with which we use to communicate: Skype, Yahoo, AOL and MSN messenger, Google Talk and ICQ all have smileys we love to use, but why not Facebook? Of course, you can add those UTF icons, but as far as we were concerned, they simply didn't cut it.
