What’s Trending: The Unicode Consortium
Description

Trending today is the Unicode Consortium, a nonprofit that’s tasked with standardizing emojis across all operating systems. (So an iPhone user can send smiley faces to an Android user, for instance.) They’ve just approved a new set of emojis – but will people use them for their stated purpose? (Also: Aaron sings the praises of emojis, and Victor alters his approach to personal communication – but not in the way you’d expect.)
