Today we will present the website @SocietyOfSigns at #Symbol24 13:50 CET.

We hid a little bombshell in the presentation for the Emoji researchers.

While the consensus is, that Shigetaka Kurita invented Emoji while working at NTT DoCoMo in 1999, that also granted him a place in the #MoMa, Matt Stephton @gingerbeardman found full sets of emojis in Japanese organizers, dating back to 1988.
