Understanding Web Personalities
The World’s First Emoticon
If a user is making a potentially inflammatory
statement and knows it, a little smiley face with horns would help
to clarify that intention. If a user thinks that a particular
comment means they are the coolest person around, the sunglasses
smiley would be appropriate.
This only a sample of the many variations on
these “smiley’s.” Instant Messenger (IM) tools have an even
greater range of emoticons, allowing users to express all ranges of
emotions.
With that introduction to the challenge of
text-only communications, the next step is to start with an easy
diagnosis of the education level of the user on the other end of the
dialogue. While not always correlated to intelligence, it is
relatively easy to detect one’s level of education when entering
text messages.
Intelligence and Formal
Education
Criminals utilizing the World Wide Web possess
various levels of intelligence and some of the most dangerous
criminals in history have been extremely intelligent. Users cannot
let a high IQ fool them into a false sense of security.
