I do beliebe that in a face to face context, the greater part of a conversation is taken non verbally. There is just so much information within our gestures, intonation, body positioning and so on. But as for virtual, I can't say i didn't have some degree of this kind of conversations but those were out of pure fun. I don't think people will basically reduce conversations at just emojis, that would take away the essence of the messages we transmit, or at least that's what i hope, it would be sad!
Great post anyway! <3
