Emoticon
As the name suggests, EMOticons (sometimes called smileys, which is ridiculous as not all of them are fucking smiling) are the only way to express human emotion OTI, as shortly after Al Gore invented the Internets, he passed a law stating that everything on it must be shortened to an acronym. Complex feelings, such as <3 and h8 are no exception, and so arose the age of the emoticon.

Graphical and Animated Emoticons
As emoticons evolved, they were replaced by graphical representations, and eventually animated GIFs. This allowed for even more flexibility in illustrating an ever wider gamut of emotions, from happiness to "Fuck you, I'm a dragon!"
Jew, charging money for downloadable sets of smileys, for use on AIM, Yahoo and MSN Messenger. These are still wildly popular with 16 year old girls and pedophiles alike. For the non-retarded Internets user who knows things like that should be free there's always DeviantART.
Image Macro Emoticons
In shitholes like 4chan, emoticons are replaced with image macros and spammed incessantly. Here are what some mean.
-
Eating Reese's and telling you something
-
Poking my head out from behind an office cubicle
