A departure from from my normal content - I need to tell you about emoji! You'll probably already know about them - just imagine a emoticon but about 300,000 times better. They really add spice to to textual content. Oh and they're Japanese - which is also way cool.
Since I've discovered emoji I've felt a pressing need to have them on my (Android) phone. This is harder than you might imagine. But totally do-able.... Here's how you get the emoji love on your Android Lollipop phone:
goto settings (the cog)
select "Language and Input"
select your "Current keyboard" and then select the "Choose keyboards" option
look for a keyboard that says "iWnn IME Japanese". Select it
drop back to the "Language and Input" menu where you will see "iWnn IME Japanese" is now there.
select it and deactivate "Japanese" and activate "Emoji" like this:
now you should find your keyboard contains a little globe icon. When you select it.... Emoji!!!!
