Put simply, they’re short, often pithy and funny, video clips that can be quickly inserted into conversations. You can shut up your colleagues. Or they could retort back at  you. There are hundreds of mojis, from naff Hollywood to Bollywood, Macca to the Muppets.

Try not to waste all day mucking around with it.

If you don’t see the icon, make sure you’re running the latest version of Skype.
