🦕 We are equally passionate about Asana and emojis

At i.DO, there are two things we are very passionate about: Asana and emojis.

We use emojis for a lot of things. We even have a complete glossary of approved emojis for internal use, each with a very specific meaning. And yes, we are strict about them.

For us, emojis bring color, they bring fun, but they also allow us to standardize and convey very specific information. For example, we have an emoji for meetings, one for quotes, one for invoices. If a task represents an invoice, the title doesn’t need the word “invoice.” It just needs the right emoji. Same for meetings. You’ll never see a task titled “meeting about X.” It’s simply the meeting emoji plus whatever the meeting is about.

We have emojis for concepts, objects, even teams. Around 30 in total, each tied to something specific. And we believe this is a key element of how we work every day.

Are you with me??? EMOJIS FOR THE WIN

I am!

One caveat to consider though from an accessibility standpoint: An overuse of emoji’s can be quite frustrating for people that have a visual disability and using screen readers.

This may be something to take into consideration, especially for larger organisations.
