I also read somewhere else that in Japan and the East in general, emoticons focus more on the "eyes" (^^) rather than the actual emotion: :-), which I think is cool, since the Eastern people's tend to focus on the face differently than Westerners, and that this effect bleeds through to something as different as this.
