This is a neat project! It looks great :-) What inspired you to create this?

It would be interesting for every emoji to link to the original tweet.

Initially I just wanted to explore some technologies I've been meaning to learn (e.g.; Node, WebSockets, Angular, and Three.js). More than that though, it had just been too long since I'd actually shipped something. :)

That's great! I hope you can keep shipping :)

This may sound silly but seeing this makes me feel more empathetic and connected to people outside of my culture. These people are extremely separated from me by distance and language but seeing these simple little emotions play out across the world make them seem closer and more similar to me.
