If you're disappointed that current emoji characters don't reflect your skin tone (http://www.engadget.com/2014/11/04/emoji-skin-tones/), don't worry: Apple is getting ready to accommodate you. Both the latest betas of iOS 8.3 (http://9to5mac.com/2015/02/23/apple-releases-ios-8-3-beta-2-for-iphone-ipad-to-developers/)and OS X 10.10.3 (http://9to5mac.com/2015/02/23/apple-releases-latest-pre-release-os-x-10-10-3-w-build-14d87h-to-developers/) include modifiers that let you choose the skin color of some icons. There are more flags, too. And Apple couldn't resist being cheeky -- you'll now see anApple Watch (http://www.engadget.com/2014/09/09/iwatch-hands-on/) in place of an ordinary timepiece, just as it already replaces generic phone pictures with an iPhone.
