Facebook smileys are tiny smiley faces which I like to add to my Facebook chat window to add some fun to them! They’re quite a new addition, but have soon become an everyday thing for anyone who uses the chat function on Facebook on the biggest site for keeping on contact with people in the entire world.

Why are Facebook icons not shown?
This is a puzzler that has surely long puzzled those who enjoy using popular internet sites. Why, if there are options such as smileys available, would the world’s most popular social network not tell the users how to use them? The real solution is clear – if you tell users how to insert them you clutter the UI and make it messy and dirtier. You also would make a more cluttered and less clear website – something that Facebook in particular has been trying to avoid with their site. It sets them apart, and makes them different. In actuality, it’s a very smart take on making a social networking.
Tell me what different different Facebook emoticons are available?
There are many, many emotes available for you to use, but sadly people can’t incorporate them in your Facebook update message or on other Facebookers walls. Right now, the only way to see these Facebook smileys is to use Facebook chat (which you can see in the bottom right of your home page, in the newly unleashed ‘Facebook bar’ that can be seen when you first log in).
This is just a brief introduction to Facebook chat smileys, in a future post I will school you a bit more on the subject of which ones are available and how to get them in your chats!
