New research on the power of smiling[BBC]

We all know that smiling is important when meeting new people. However, new research suggests that different types of smiles affect what people think of us.
There are any number of sayings about the power of the smile. 'Peace begins with a smile.' 'A smile is the universal welcome.' 'Life is short but a smile only takes a second.' According to new research, if you want to make a good impression when you meet people, it's not just that you smile. It's how you smile.
The best smile, they say, is slower and floods naturally across the whole face.
