Inline

Quick note : Frykitty is spreading the inline tag concept from it's mysterious beginnings ~deep in the Alabama woods, where a group of secretive hill people, long isolated from society, have been developing strange and otherworldly shortcuts in their communication.~ The efficiency of their verbal and written interactions render their speech almost incomprehensible to us outsiders, but perhaps, adopting some of their more clever innovations, we can help the textual world become a more intelligible place.

This, I pray. Or I would, %if I were the prayin' type%.

Seriously, I'd love to see these reach critical mass. Very useful, and a hell of a lot more nuanced than emoticons.
