摘要

A method and system for providing emojis, or interactive icons, that have embedded functionality and can be used in text messages or other web based communication. The method and system of interactive icons with embedded functionality can convert a word into an exact logo. The converted logo can have embedded functionality, such as hyperlinks, phone number, using GPS to find locations closest to a user, or opening of a company's app. The interactive icons with embedded functionality may be selected from a keyboard, or from a predictive texting function. They can then be shared or viewed, or selected to provide the embedded information without leaving the messaging application.
