Wow I never knew it existed thanks Sun.

||||||| this is o.k.
I feel like a little kid in preschool who just learned how to hold a pencil.
lol cool. ||||| Mine is somewhere else altogther. It's top left, shift button below, esc above, the number 1 to it's right. Portuguese keyboard. Which why I can right things like:
portugûes, a vida é boa, as condições são terríveis, HubPages é fantástico, não é?! - without hunting for special characters.
Still, I can also make pipe key strokes to my heart's content, only the Portuguese seem to like a few millimeters between strokes

And an oldie but goodie: <3)~Well...now that you've got your pipe, you can smoke it
[Seriously] though, it's most often used to separate words or phrases like:
First | Second | Third | Fourth ...and so on.
Wow....aren't we having fuunnn
And we're learnin' too!- show off....
For anyone who's interested, there's a whole bunch more characters beyond those available on your keyboard. On a Windows PC, most of them are accessible by holding down the 'Alt' button and typing in the number code for the character using the number pad area on the (usually) right side of the keyboard. If you're a MAC, it's probably different, but the codes are the same.
Here's a link to the ASCII codes and characters:

(hint: use the number in the 'DEC' column)
Happy hunting, boys and girls

Is there any way to add this feature to Hubs? Something similar to what you have in the forum? Would save a lot of scrolling when you're at the bottom of a 300+ comment thread.
