Creative? No.

chat speak is essentially just a complex system concerned with abbreviating words. Interestingly, it shouldn't exist nowadays. back in the 1980's when character spaces were limited (160 characters), people had to come up with a more efficient system, and thus text speak was born.


Today, however, we generally do not have a short character limit (except twitter and a few others), so there is really no excuse to write incorrectly.

I've researched this extensively in Spanish, and most people claim that they use chat speak to write quicker, but in reality you only save milliseconds of your time.

Chat speak isn't creative, but it is interesting. If chat speak stil continues to be used, it may influence directly any language, as we speak it. Have you noticed how people actually verbalise: LOL and OMG? Perhaps, one day, if the habit continues, people will start to pronounce words differently, or with more abbreviations.

As Heraclitus once said: Nothing is permanent, everything flows, The same principle applies to language, it is always in a contineous state of change.
