Copy Paste Character did an impressive update to their site. Lots of new and helpful functionality. Plus, they launched an iPhone App.
Copy Paste Character let’s you copy the ‘hidden’ characters that come with the computer’s typefaces, so you can paste them into emails, tweets, text documents, forums and whatever else you might need to spice up with an extra ♔, ฿ or, ❒.
Copy Paste Character is developed in Stockholm, Sweden, by Konst & Teknik & Martin.
Theres a emoticon one too but it only works on OSX Lion.

Why do I need such a web site when I already have this functionality built into my operating system?
Mac OS X as well as Windows let you access all unicode characters already. Even iOS gives you access to many special characters and you can even add an additional keyboard layout for emoji characters.
You can also copy and paste your favorite characters into a text file and send it to your iPhone as an email or a notes item.
