Online conversations can be easy misinterpreted because you do not see the other persons body language or facial expressions. Fortunately, there are special characters and symbols you can incorporate into these conversations to help define your tone and express your personality as you create a status update on a social networking site or send an instant message. You can type a heart symbol on your keyboard using alt codes, an HTML entity or a combination of symbols and numbers.
