This website is terrible at conveying what this project is about.
what a confusing and unhelpful faq:
* What is the main purpose behind Emoji One?
We were in the middle of starting a new web venture (and still are actually) that needed a full emoji set,…
* How do I install Emoji One on my device?
End users don’t have to do a thing! Emoji will continue to work on your mobile devices just as they always have…
I spent a good 10 minutes reading stuff and navigating pages tried the demo and fail to understand why a set of instant messaging icons is newsworthy in any way and it could be useful to anyone.
Also, boasting free culture and open source and deliberately forgetting linux in the comparison chart feels odd, plus the promotion of this brand new upcoming revolutionary porn site feels out of place here.
I may be pessimistic but I don't see this getting widespread adoption anytime soon which is must for this to be of any use. I wouldn't care as I have banned those stupid and colorful useless icons a long time ago and I still use the works everywhere ascii art ^^
Some of the FAQ questions are geared towards the general public, check out our github page for more detailed development info:

Unicode has set a standard for all emoji sets to follow, but if you want to implement them on the web, native desktop display varies drastically depending on the users device, and in a lot of cases there is no support at all (Chrome on windows).
This is especially useful for sites that accept input from mobile devices, ensuring that any emoji inputted from a phone will display correctly on desktop. Twitter has something similar in place using their own proprietary emoji set.
We did forget to include Linux's variant in the homepage graphic, however it is included on our full comparison table (Symbola): http://www.emoji.codes/family
