Sometimes it's hard to express an emotion or make a comment without losing some of it's meaning when you are using email or discussion boards. To help, Internet users have created symbols using punctuation marks to make expressive faces. These can give an indication of a mood or even an indication of the writer's looks or personality. To read these signs, you have to tilt your head to your left shoulder.

You can use the keys on your Bush Internet keyboard or remote control to make them - remember that sometimes you will need to use the Shift key to use some of the symbols.

Here are some examples and their meanings:
