The other two differences are the use of teeth with the emoji, compared to a red tongue with the Smiley Dictionary laughing emoticon. The major difference is the addition of tears at either side of the eyes. The Smiley Dictionary laughing emoticon and Tears of Joy emoji have the same mouth and eyes. It is the oldest known origin of the Tears of Joy emoji and has similar characteristics to the present day version. The Smiley Dictionary contained hundreds of yellow-faced emoticons, including a laughing emoticon. He created a smiley toolbar, which was available at during the early 2000s to be sent as emoji are today. The digital smiley movement was headed up by Nicolas Loufrani, the CEO of The Smiley Company. Nokia as one of the largest telecoms companies globally at the time, were still referring to today's emoji sets as smileys in 2001. The smiley toolbar offered a variety of symbols and smileys and was used on platforms such as MSN Messenger. The Dictionary provided a list of emotions that could be used to communicate online. In 2001, The Smiley Company developed and launched The Smiley Dictionary. The Softbank set did contain faces with emotion, but only two, one smiley and one with a sad face. Emojipedia tweeted about the set in 2019, demonstrating what emojis were available in 1997. Since DoCoMo's i-Mode emoji set derived from a Japanese visual style commonly found in manga and anime, combined with kaomoji, they symbolise facial expressions. Despite the media referring to Kurita as the father of the emoji, the Tears of Joy emoji cannot be traced back to his early work. Kurita's set contained colored images, but none of the 176 emojis represented emotions. The first popular set was designed by NTT DoCoMo employee Shigetaka Kurita in 1999, after he sketched illustrations to be used in text messages. Softbank's J-Phone launched in 1997, but due to the limited adoption of the product, it wasn't popular. Two competing companies, NTT DoCoMo and Softbank created the first two emoji sets. In general terms, emoji development dates back to the late 1990s in Japan.
