Chat And Text Abbreviations

Chatting and text messaging has grown so popular in our culture practically everyone has either sent a text message and or has chatted online with one of the popular instant message softwares. Texting on cell phones and PDA's is on the verge of replacing an actual phone call and as we spend more time on the computer it's easier to send an instant message. And so you dont get left behind you better know some of the popular chat and text abbreviations.

If you are on a website like HP and you were trying to figure out software you just downloaded for example, do you do pick up the phone and make a call or get help with live chat? Almost all people in that situation will chose to chat with someone online rather than picking up the phone going through the red tape and get to the right person who can help.
