My poem that uses SMS/Text Messaging shortcuts made a recent Edutopia Magazine article on the use of text messaging in the classroom and its push into the lexicon of young people.

If you don't live it, it won't come out of your horn. ~ Charlie Parker
I have tinkered with the idea of getting my students to write a complete post in their text language and getting others to try and read and translate in the comments back. So far, I have allowed students to use bits of it in their replies to comments to each other but to try and avoid it in comments to global connections. What do you allow with your class?
Congrats to you.
