Is typing a colon and a parentheses too much for you? Need a dedicated emoticon keyboard? Well does Bajca have a product for you. This odd thing is a concept project consisting of a bunch of little balls with faces on them. When you’re feeling happy or bored, then press the button. Then you can wear them like jewelry. Confused? I know I am.



It looks like these guys want to make a real product that you can actually plug into your USB port, so God bless them. You so rarely get to wear your emoticons anymore.

I want to chalk this up to an art project gone awry but the more I think about this, the more I see a language emerging. Imagine emails consisting solely of emoticons. :) ;-* ;-*^ ;a( I see some military encryption potential in this.
