Nice!!! This is great :-) Yesterday I deployed a new application that I'm
interested on about how good we are identifying emotions in other people. I
got interested in this topic because one day I found the project The Face
We Make in Flickr (by Dexter Miranda) where there are a set of photos of
several people representing emoticons. The goal: I show you one photo and
you have to guess who is he/she representing :-) Sometimes is easy,
sometimes it is really difficult, not only because of you but also because
sometimes the person representing the emoticon does it in a way that you
will not be able to recognize it :-) I'm liking this app a lot. As for you,
it took me around one hour to have everything running and you can test it
here:

Cheers,
