Summary | The town of Rüsselheim wants to provide their inhabitants with wifi access in all public spaces in the inner city.

Summary | It has become fashionable to use images called emojis in one's messages. They can however be easily misunderstood. The poop emoji rather looks like a friendly chocolate treat. The two swimmers can be confused with a copulating couple. Why not just call and tell people what one means? Emojis may be fun but they do not always work well.
