Cool Keyboard Symbols


Happy, Happy, Happy!!! !!

So read a friend's mail to me about a decade ago. And I thought 'Hey, that's such a cool idea!'. Then I thought about the letters to my maternal grandad. I remembered squiggling hearts into the margin and filling it in with a deep red color, then bordering it with an arrow through and through. That back then was a really cool symbol to emote what you were feeling. But today...oh boy! That does not even cover the extent to which the keyboard symbols have gone on their journey. The smileys have gotten old, I'd say. They do exist and are used quite frequently, but there are so many other cool keyboard symbols and keyboard tricks now that you'd be spoiled for choice.

Emoticons and symbols have changed the way the world communicates on the net and I'm sure you're already into it. But if you want more, and are wondering how to make these creative keyboard symbols, then this article will give you a list.

P.S. Use any of these keyboard shortcuts to make symbols (made really simple with the table above.) Make sure that you keep the 'Alt ' key pressed with the '+ ' key and the corresponding numbers. Use the numbers that are on the extreme right of the keyboard. If you're using these symbols from a laptop then follow the same keys 'Alt', '+', 'Fn' and the corresponding number. Make sure to press the Fn key or it won't work.

Other Symbols for Facebook

These are some other codes that you can use on Facebook by directly copy-pasting them in your window. Just right click the mouse and copy the symbol, then paste it on the screen.



These are only some of the cool symbols that you can work with. The net is full of symbols like these. Symbols bring a whole new dimension to the text. So stop keeping a drab text from now on and get some life into the texts.
