The blog chronicles my struggle with ALH (Adult Left Handedness). I also post drawings and write about software. Sometimes there's clips and notes from shows I am in or watch.

Google Voice is a fine offering which among other things, offers texting. Perhaps “Voice” isn’the best name for this product, but that is not the subject today. I’m worried about icons. In Gmail, the Rich Text Editor offers dozens of colorful emoticons and other icons.
Why can’t at least some of these be available when sending a text?
Even a basic GoPhone has an “Insert Smiley” feature. But this might cost money. SMS is “Short Message Service,” a protocol which apparently does not include graphics. Perhaps Google, so in touch with information if not consumers, could manage the expectations of the latter by providing an explanation of what SMS can and cannot do.
