Boo! 👻

If that didn’t scare you, our spooky issue of What’s Hot Wednesday will! 🦇🎃 Commence the spooky Halloween tunes!

  • Looking into our crystal ball 🔮 … marketers are predicting heightened adoption of metaverse tech in 2023. They’re even looking to create a new role in their team for a “metaverse coordinator.” Get the full outlook in this MarketingTech article.
  • *ghoulish voice* They’re coming… and they’re raising privacy concerns. Uber ads are going to be formally released soon and people have already brought up concerns on location privacy.

  • Here lies the thumbs up emoji 💀. That’s right, the thumbs up emoji has been canceled by Gen Z for being abrupt and sometimes rude, according to Forbes.

The meanings encoded in the pictographic and technical communication are deeper than earlier generations. With that lens, it’s no surprise that emojis can get canceled.
