Like most of the cultural inventions of virtual communities there was prior art on PLATO.

Those emoticons seem to have been in many ways better than :-) and its relatives, but it sounds like they 1) relied on details of the platform, and (related) 2) never caught on more broadly. So I think it's still reasonable to celebrate the invention of :-) (while maybe imagining how much richer text conversations might have been if the PLATO text-display system had become ubiquitous).

I was definitely using :-) on Plato in 1979. I'd be surprised if Plato was the first use, though.

Talkomatic was the world's first multi-user chat application. It was hosted on the PLATO system where Ray Ozzie once worked. There is a online version created by the original authors at:

I was curious about the timeline of chat applications and googled it. EMISARI pre-dated Talkomatic by a couple years: http://www.livinginternet.com/r/ri_emisari.htm

I wear what I wore to work that day.

You can usually get excellent support on the Logstash IRC channel. #logstash on irc.freenode.org

Thanks, I'll try that.
