Summary | A convention for emojis (Emojicon) taking place in a San Francisco mall attracts lots of emoji professionals and afficionados. There they learn about the Unicode Consortium - the non-profit organization that introduces new emojis. Everybody can submit an emoji design to Unicode but only 70 emojis are accepted per year. Unicode also never deletes an already existing emoji, so they have to keep the number of new entries low. The convention is full of fun activities, 'emoji karaoke' being one of them. A room full of people listen to songs and try to transcribe them with emojis in real time.
