The need to stand out from the crowd - the “crowd” - is inherent in us by nature. If we recall the structure of snowflakes, among which there is not one identical, then God himself ordered us to stand out. Indeed, in fact, we not only stand out, but also assert ourselves in the general mass. And among young people, blindly led by the notorious youthful maximalism, the tendency to differences just grows to irrepressible sizes. And there is nothing wrong or reprehensible in this. Each stands out as he can: some with his mind, others with beauty, and others with eccentricity and extravagance.
Original status in "Contact": how to put a heart on the keyboard?
Just imagine the average user of the well-known social network VKontakte, who wants to stand out among his own kind. The original photo on the avatar, mysterious, intriguing pictures with thoughtful statements of a philosophical plan ... The turn comes to status, and here the problems begin. It seems that all successful statements, a veiled attitude towards life, moral promises are already disgusted and have become commonplace. What to do in this case? The answer is simple: you need to put some non-standard symbol in the status, and it’s not difficult to do this. And since the majority of VKontakte users have already boldly entered the wonderful time of the emergence of tender and sensual relationships, that is, love, a heart in status will always be one of the most popular and in demand. But how to put a heart on the keyboard? Everything is pretty simple. You must press the following key combination - Alt + 3 (plus, of course, you do not need to press).
It is worth noting that the heart does not appear when the keys are pressed, but after they are released. You can practice on a standard Word document, and after that you can safely go to social networks, no longer racking your brains on how to put a heart in "Contact".
Heart, and not only
It is worth mentioning another way, which, perhaps in a more accessible form, will explain how to put a heart on the keyboard. Click on the Windows icon "All Programs", then select "Standard" from the list of programs. The next column is "Utilities", in it the link is "Character table". Launch, and there you will see the coveted icon - a heart. How to put? Simple: copy and paste into the text or status field.
The necessary information can be obtained without fear of seeming foolish and ignorant, that is, to some extent a “teapot”. The VKontakte social network is full of groups with names like: "How to make hearts," "Lovers to set hearts," etc.
In them, each user is not only taught how to put a heart on the keyboard, but even
how to draw a crocodile. Displaying all sorts of characters that are not available on the standard keyboard is not magic. The fact is that personal computers have always had the ability to transmit a lot of different characters - much more than those that we see on the keyboard every day. At the moment, the standard character code table includes more than a hundred non-standard (for non-knowledgeable) characters that can be displayed using various manipulations - just like putting a heart on the keyboard.
