The woman who invented her own emoji

Business Daily

Available for over a year

Susan Burtner from Tennessee wanted a cricket emoji to signpost awkward silences in text conversations, so she invented it. A limited number of new emojis are approved each year and anyone can submit a proposal. The cricket will be available by the end of the year.
