    2010 - 01.02

    A lot of people have asked how I underline and bold my text when I’m chatting to them in Facebook chat. Facebook only currently support underline and bold, not italic.

    To create a BOLD statement, use stars and any text in between them will automatically BOLD. Example: “You *pathetic* imp!” will become “You pathetic imp”!.

    To do underscores/underline just use _ as place holders.  Example: _HELLO_ will become HELLO.

    Simple really.

    You can also try these emoticons in chat:


    :) - happy

    :( - sad

    :P - tongue

    :D - grin

    :O - gasp

    ;) - wink

    8) - glasses

    B) - sunglasses

    :3 - cute/cat-like

    >:( - grumpy

    :/ - unsure

    :’( - cry

    3:) - devil

    O:) - angel

    :-* - kiss

    ^_^ - “kiki”

    -_- - squint

    O.o - confused

    >:O - upset

    <3 - heart

    :v - Pacman

    :|] - robot

    :putnam: - Chris Putnam (Facebook Engineer)

    (^^^) - Shark

    <(") - Penguin

    and in your usernames, how about hearts and musical notes?
