And for those who are new to Skype, here are the other hidden ones:
Some explanations:
(toivo) = Toivo Annus is the name of a former Skype Staff member. He was head of engineering. His "signature" on the Skype Forum was "Dog ate my headset"!
(heidy) = is probably also a Skype Staff member or at least somebody related with Skype. I found this phrase on the Skype Blogs: "I just got off a video test call from a Lufthansa flight over the Atlantic on Boeing Connexion wifi service. I saw Heidy waving to me from the cafeteria in Tallinn."
(kate) = is an alternative to a known and shown emoticon. Try it! But who is this? There was a Skype Staff member called Kate. You can find her 3 posts under the Skype Forum name "Skype-Kate_"
(london) = is also an alternative to a known and shown emoticon. Quite funny!

There is another emoticon (poolparty), but you better dont ask about the reason for this one ;)
Hey Martin,
I know it, but perhaps YOU know the reason and could tell us what you know ;-)
Try also (flag:it) (flag:de) etc
Matteo,
Thanks for the hint, probably some readers don't know it, but indeed country flags are already available since several months as "hidden emoticons".
Indeed (flag:be), (flag:br), (flag:us), etc. are available in your chats.

The (myspace) was added months later compared to my original blogpost.
