I'm not really a huge fan, I very really use them. However, the concept of a pictographic language is something I have encountered in numerous novels, and it sounds pretty awesome. I don't know if emojis will be the path to that, but perhaps eventually there will be something similar that we use. For me, it's just easier to write out what I'm saying. Using emojis would make it take longer. I agree though that the capacity to include nuance is definitely worth while.

Oh man... real pictographic languages would be a nightmare I think! There is already enough confusion without adding in the subtle nuance of what a reader/author perceives in a subjective picture! Anyway, I do still find that the emoji are useful when used in conjunction with words, they set the tone of the sentence... but alone... well, that is pretty confusing at times...
