Emoticons plays very special role in mails, chats and SMS. But its quite tedious to use mouse to send an emoticon. I discovered some keyboard shortcuts to type emoticons. When typed, these key combinations automatically get converted into pictures ... a nice feature of live mail and live messenger.

Use the below mentioned keys within brackets. For example if you type (A), it will get converted into an Angle Smile Emoticon(). For knowledge and ease of memory, I have also typed the name of emoticon.

एक व्यक्ति ने पिंजरे में कबूतर कैद किया हुआ था. कबूतर बाहर निकलने के लिए छटपटा रहा था, मैंने उस व्यक्ति से कहा, "भाई इस बेचारे ने तुम्हारा क्या बिगाडा है इस बेचारे को छोड़ दो". उसने मेरे आग्रह पर पिंजरे का द्वार खोला और कबूतर को निकाल कर उसके पंख तोड़ कर एक तरफ़ फेंक दिए और धड दूसरी ओर. तथा मेरी तरफ़ देख कर बोला, "लीजिये आजाद कर दिया. आप इसे क्या कहेंगे, आज़ादी या विभाजन?"
