Aye, while "emoticons" might be a pain, regardless of how concise

Predominantly, this is because (according to a number of human
interaction
studies), more than 60% of any conversation between two people
(face to
face) is non-verbal. In an email message, emoticons are the
closest thing
to that missing 60% that one can find regardless of how articulate
you try
to be.
If smileys really are that effective in supporting written language
it surprises me they have not yet entered literature.
