    These days anymore, there are tending to be a godzillion symbols and abbreviations that can be used. More are invented all the time.

    Listed below, are just a few examples.

    Below, are some possible symbols to be used to convey the meaning of being sad, unhappy, not in agreement with something that has been said or maybe even puzzlement.

    %-(
    : [
    :'-(
    :-(
    :-/
    :-}
    :_(
    >:-(

    Here are some that might convey the feeling of being happy, in agreement with what has been stated or even that of surprise.

    %-)
    (^^
    8-&#222;
    : )
    : D
    : ]
    :'-)
    :-)
    :->
    :-D
    :-\
    :-]
    :-]~
    :_)

    I am sure that there are others on this sight who can come up with more of them.

    You might want to check out the following sites for additional information concerning chatspeak, chat speak, chat symbols or chat abbreviations.

    Online Signs & Symbols Glossary -- ThirdAge

    Justachat.com - Chat Symbols for Teen Chat and Adults Chat

    Most people who are going to want to really convey a message of any importance to another person, aren't going to be using symbols or abbreviations in the writing. The usage of these sorts of things are really just for fun.

    If you are going to try to convey a message to someone so that they truly understand the things about which you are trying to communicate, it is best to just use appropriate grammar and spelling without any symbols or abbreviations.

    For instance, on the site that we are on right now, you could be dialoguing with a person from anywhere around the world who might not have any clue to what you are trying to communicate if you do use symbols and abbreviations.
